Strengthening & Repair
Specialists in concrete repair and seismic strengthening services
Overview
BBR Saudi Arabia is globally recognized for its concrete engineering and construction expertise, providing comprehensive structural rehabilitation and strengthening services across diverse markets. Our experienced engineers and specialist teams conduct rehabilitation works on buildings and civil engineering structures, utilizing advanced European-approved technology. Throughout a structure's lifespan, circumstances like change of use, design code alterations, or environmental factors may necessitate intervention. Our specialist teams assess structures to identify issues and their underlying causes, diagnosing the cause of failure and ensuring techniques used make repaired areas resistant to the original cause. Through inspection, testing, analysis, and certification, we formulate long-term cost-effective repair solutions based on the structural design life desired by the client.
Key Capabilities
Our Technologies
Advanced strengthening systems engineered for performance and reliability
BBR Slab Strengthening Kit (SSK)
Extending the life of built assets through maintenance, repair and retrofitting (MRR) is a key component of a carbon emissions reduction strategy. The BBR Slab Strengthening Kit applies the latest external post-tensioning (PT) technology to reinforce existing concrete building elements without using carbon intensive and slower rebar and formwork solutions. It enables the structural enhancement and upgrades required for repurposing, reusing and increasing return on investment for built assets.

Comprehensive solutions backed by decades of engineering expertise
CFRP Systems
Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer technology using 10cm plates and 50cm wraps for strengthening columns, beams, and footings with high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance.
Jacketing
Meticulous application of high-strength material layers to fortify beams, columns, slabs, and rafts, addressing weaknesses and extending structural lifespan.
External Post-Tensioning
High-strength tendons strategically tensioned on structure exteriors, inducing compressive forces for enhanced load-bearing capacity and structural rehabilitation.
Crack Injection
Specialized resins and polyurethane compounds injected into concrete cracks, sealing vulnerabilities and restoring structural integrity while preventing water ingress.
Steel Plate Bonding
Strategic affixing of steel plates to redistribute stress and augment load-bearing capacities, ideal for retrofitting older structures.
Micropile Systems
Small-diameter high-strength piles installed deep into soil or rock for foundation strengthening, settlement mitigation, and enhanced stability.
Shotcrete Application
High-velocity concrete stream for rapid repairs of cracks, spalls, and surface imperfections, plus structural shoring and stabilization.
Seismic Retrofitting
Comprehensive earthquake resistance solutions for bridge piers, jetty piles, tunnels, and chimneys using advanced strengthening techniques.
