Corner Repair

 

Project Scope:

14 course high un-reinforced 12″ cement block basement wall failure. The corner of the inside basement/garage wall had broken and pulled away. Other cracking was evident but the corner repair was urgent. 

Solution:

The vertical corner crack was injected with Fortress toughened epoxy and allowed to set up. A Fortress “corner stabilization kit” was then installed with 2′ spacing between the four grids. Because the walls had not yet been painted, installation took only a few hours. 

Observations:

With the critical corner now stabilized, the customer will have the remainder of his basement walls stabilized with Fortress 4″ grid straps in the future as his budget allows.
