CONSOLIDATION OF STRUCTURAL MASONRY THROUGH THE INCLUSION OF TIE-RODSI

The tie-rods are fully or less threaded long metal rods placed between two load bearing walls. Resisting the traction, they have the task to avoid the separation of the two walls both in static and dynamic conditions, such as seismic events. Positioning a series of tie-rods in an appropriate manner, it has the effect of binding the whole structure in order to make it as a single body. It must be noted that the final result can only be achieved on a well consolidated masonry, possibly with injections.
