Column Jacketing Services
In the dynamic construction industry of today, structural safety and durability are unavoidable. Column jacketing is one of the best methods for repairing and strengthening old or damaged columns. We are offering cutting-edge column jacketing services that are appropriate for both new construction and the structural retrofit of existing structures.
To increase the load-bearing capacity and seismic performance of columns, our skilled team guarantees accurate assessment, premium materials, and flawless implementation. We make sure your columns are safe, sturdy, and prepared for the future, whether they are in an industrial facility, a commercial structure, or a residential complex.
What is Column Jacketing?
A structural strengthening method for reinforcing or retrofitting concrete columns is called column jacketing. In order to strengthen an existing column’s ductility and load-bearing capability, it is wrapped or encased with additional materials such steel, concrete, or fiber-reinforced polymers.
Columns that have deteriorated as a result of corrosion, seismic activity, overloading, or subpar construction techniques can be restored with great success using this technique. It is frequently used in structural rehabilitation projects to guarantee buildings’ long-term performance and safety

Our Column Jacketing Service Process
We take a systematic and thorough strategy to guarantee that every jacketing process is carried out precisely. Our procedure consists of:
Site Assessment and Diagnosis
We start with a comprehensive structural assessment on-site. Using non-destructive testing techniques, our team evaluates the degree of column damage, load distribution, and underlying causes of degradation.
Design and Engineering
Our engineers create the jacketing plan based on the findings of the evaluation. Depending on the needs of the structure, load circumstances, and environmental considerations, the type of jacket—concrete, steel, or FRP—is chosen.
Surface Preparation
The surface of the current column is cleaned, any loose materials are taken out, and any cracks are fixed before jacketing. To provide a robust interface between the old and new materials, bonding agents are subsequently used.
Installation
Carefully, the selected jacketing material is cast or applied around the column. By adhering to safety regulations and best building procedures, we guarantee correct reinforcement placement and curing.
Quality Control & Monitoring
Every step is checked for adherence to quality standards. Last-minute inspections guarantee that the column has reached the appropriate strength and performance

Why Choose Column Jacketing?
Column jacketing is a long-term investment in stability, sustainability, and safety rather than merely a repair method. This is why it is crucial:
- Enhanced Load Capacity: Jacketing strengthens the columns’ axial and shear components.
- Protection against Corrosion: Prevents environmental harm to existing reinforcement.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Less expensive than reconstruction and demolition.
- Extended Lifespan: Prevents the degeneration of ageing structures and gives them new life.
- Seismic Resistance: Enhances ductility and energy dissipation under earthquake forces.
