When it comes to bridge repairs, preparation is everything. SZB Blasting & Coatings recently completed a sandblasting project on a bridge in Campbellford, targeting both concrete surfaces and rebar. This critical step ensures that the repaired structure will stand the test of time.
Why Sandblast for Bridge Repairs?
Sandblasting removes dirt, rust, old coatings, and other contaminants that can prevent new materials from adhering properly. For this project, our team focused on:
Concrete Surfaces: Sandblasting creates a clean, rough texture, allowing fresh concrete to bond effectively.
Rebar: By stripping away rust and other debris, we restored the integrity of the rebar, which is essential for structural reinforcement.
A Clean Surface Makes All the Difference
The bridge repair process depends on achieving a strong bond between the old and new materials. Sandblasting ensures that the fresh concrete and coatings adhere seamlessly to the treated surfaces, extending the life of the repair and improving overall durability.
We’re proud to support infrastructure projects like this in Campbellford and beyond. With expertise in industrial and structural sandblasting, SZB Blasting & Coatings is committed to delivering quality results that last.
