Igot Bridge
The Igot Bridge is a road bridge that boundary of pili Tigaon to Albay road Patitinan, Sagñay Camarines sur. Based on actual inspection, investigation, the common problem of the bridge structure. There are cases where distress in abutment/pier and super structure has occurred because increase loading than the design load. May resulting the crack in the bridge structure.
- Project Description
- RMBRCI Using Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) for Strengthening of the Bridge
- Retrofitting of Igot Bridge
- REHABILITATION/MAJOR OF PERMANENT BRIDGES - IGOT BRIDGE (B02389LZ)
Based on actual inspection, investigation, the common problem of the bridge structure. There are cases where distress in abutment/pier and super structure has occurred because increase loading than the design load. May resulting the crack in the bridge structure. A bridge may require retrofitting due to upgrading of design standards, using Carbon Fiber Composite and Carbon Fiber Plate to harden and increase structural capacity and protect against progressive collapse. It consist repair of crack using epoxy or polymer modified mortar and injection.
Location: Along PILI-Tigaon-Albay Bndry Road, Patitinan Camarines Sur

- A bridge may require retrofitting due to upgrading of design standards, using Carbon Fiber Sheet (CFS) and Carbon Fiber Plate (CFP) to harden and increase structural capacity and protect against progressive collapse. It consists of carbon and glass fabrics that are impregnated with the quality resins to form laminate that is externally bonded to the element to be strengthened.
- 1. Removal of loose materials, and Concrete Plaster by means of chipping and grinding.
2. Application of Carbon Fiber Sheet (CFS) with Chemical Epoxy resins
3. Restoration of bottom slab, girder and beam on Affected by Carbon Fiber Sheets (CFS) Application
4. Protective Coating for concrete Structures (Skim Coat)/ Plastering Works
5. Painting Works (Masonry, and Concrete)
