Total Steel Rehabilitation

Abrasive Blasting, Steel Repair and Steel Coatings

Steel Repair & Rehabilitation

Steel rehabilitation involves restoring and strengthening steel structures that have deteriorated due to factors such as corrosion, fatigue, or mechanical damage. This process is crucial for extending the lifespan of steel infrastructure, such as bridges, buildings, and pipelines, while ensuring safety and functionality. Rehabilitation methods typically include cleaning and removing rust or damaged coatings through techniques like abrasive blasting, followed by the application of protective coatings or corrosion inhibitors.
 

Portolesi Structural fill the need for fast and economical steel repair and re-coating works. We offer total steel rehabilitation services, including all abrasive blasting and steel corrosion protection solutions.

Abrasive Blasting

Abrasive blasting enhances surface adhesion for coatings, improves material aesthetics, and extends the lifespan of treated structures. The process is widely employed in construction and asset rehabilitation to remove rust, paint, contaminants, or imperfections from surfaces like metal and concrete.

 

Steel Corrosion Protection

One of the main problems facing steel structures is corrosion, which effectively reduces total section area of steel members. This leads to elevated stresses in the corroded area and, moreover, increases in the service load of critical structures, such as bridges. Steel corrosion protection is essential for preserving the structural integrity and longevity of steel components exposed to harsh environmental conditions. Corrosion occurs when steel reacts with oxygen and moisture, leading to rust and deterioration. To mitigate this, various protection methods are employed, such as applying protective coatings.
