The Carbon Corner system by Fortress Stabilization Systems is a permanent solution for cracked, tipping, bowing, or separating corners in foundation walls, retaining walls, and sea walls. Engineered with advanced carbon fiber and Kevlar® technology, this patent-pending corner reinforcement is stronger than steel, virtually invisible after installation, and ideal for contractors focusing on foundation repair. It eliminates the need for bulky steel beam reinforcements and offers structural integrity for the life of the home.
Why Foundation Wall Corners Fail
Foundation corners often bear the brunt of lateral pressure from expanding soils or hydrostatic pressure, causing them to crack, bow outward, or separate at the joint. Left unaddressed, these issues compromise the structural integrity of your home or building.
