Structural survey to investigate bowing flank wall in Bristol

Another of today’s Structural Survey to investigate a bowing wall on this 1902 block of flats in Knowle, Bristol.

The bulge in the flank wall measures approximately 3.5 metres by 4.5 metres and is due to separation between the inner and outer leafs of masonry, after carrying out our comprehensive survey a solution was achieved using a combination of Twistfix helical bars, Twistfix delamination ties and lateral restraint ties together with deep bed grout injection and ‘re pointing eliminating the need to rebuild the flank elevation at a considerable cost.

Newman’s work closely with structural engineers, building surveyors and loss adjusters offering cost effective modern day methods of building and structural repairs, to see how we can help call 0333 444 0154
