Timber Resin Repairs
Timber decay, either at the end of a beam or mid span usually means that extensive opening up is required to replace the affected area.
The Rotafix Timber Resin Splice (TRS) system offers the very best method for the repair of in-situ timber joists, wall plates, lintels and structural timbers.
The Rotafix TRS is a new concept using resin technology to enable a section of tanalised, stress graded guaranteed timbers to be attached onto the original joist or beam. Slots are cut either from above or from the side to accommodate specially designed connector rods. The connection is completed by the insertion of a specially formulated resin.
The benefit in using the Rotafix TRS system is that valuable timber can be saved, particularly in listed buildings and it can provide a cosmetic result that can be as good as the original.
The Rotafix TRS system offers three levels of security, in that the tanalised timber is certified, whilst the Rotafix resins are guaranteed for the life of the parent timber. The Rotafix TRS system can also be insured by the Guarantee Protection Trust provided a BWPDA member undertakes the installation.
The TRS system is one of many repairs that can be effected using resin technology. Other repairs that can be undertaken using resin are the filling of 'shakes', the consolidation of hollow timber and the repair of Glulam beams, etc.
