Tightening (screeding) a house from cracks: a solution for property owners

Property owners often face the problem of cracks in the walls of their homes. One of the methods to combat this problem is to tighten the house, that is, eliminate cracks by bringing its structure into an equilibrium state. In this text we will look at the causes of cracks, methods of tightening a house and the consequences of such actions.

Causes of cracks. Cracks in walls can occur for a variety of reasons, including:

  • Consequences of natural processes such as thermal expansion and contraction, soil subsidence, changes in humidity, etc.
  • Insufficient strength or improper distribution of loads in the structure of the house.
  • Exposure to external factors such as earthquakes, floods or severe, widespread severe weather.

Methods of dealing with cracks in a building. Various tightening methods are used to eliminate cracks and prevent their further formation, including:

  • Use of reinforced ties, angles and ties: This method involves installing reinforcing elements, such as metal rods or specialized polymer inserts, to strengthen the structure and prevent deformation.
  • Use of injection materials: In some cases, cracks may be caused by moisture or water penetrating into the walls. The use of waterproofing materials allows you to prevent these problems and eliminate the causes of cracks.
  • Foundation Repair and Strengthening: If the cause of the cracks is related to problems in the foundation, it is necessary to repair and strengthen the foundation to restore the stability of the entire structure.

An important aspect to consider when considering the method of tightening a house from cracks.

  • Climate Features and Temperature Changes: In climate zones with seasonal changes in ambient temperature, standard house construction may face additional challenges. When installing reinforced screeds or other strengthening elements, it is necessary to take into account possible changes in size and deformation of structures under the influence of temperature and humidity fluctuations. For example, when the temperature increases, materials can expand, and when the temperature decreases, they contract. This can lead to changes in the stress of the structures themselves and the tension of the ties, which in turn can put additional pressure on the walls and other structural elements, leading to new deformations and damage.
  • Regular maintenance and adjustment: In order to avoid further damage and deformation, it is important to regularly check the condition and tension of ties and other reinforcement elements. Adjustment and adjustment of tension are required depending on the regularity of changes in climatic conditions and other factors affecting the load-bearing structures of the building. This will help maintain the stability and reliability of the reinforced elements, as well as prevent further damage or the appearance of new ones.

Considering these factors, it is necessary to ensure proper installation and regular maintenance of the home’s tie-down system, especially in regions with variable climates. This will help minimize the risks of additional damage and ensure the durability and reliability of the structure for a long time.

The traditional process of tightening a home against cracks often comes with a number of challenges and limitations, especially in variable climates and regular maintenance requirements. However, the Stati-CAL system offers innovative solutions that can offset these disadvantages and provide more effective and durable strengthening of the home structure.

  1. Adapt to changing conditions: One of the main advantages of the Stati-CAL system is its ability to adapt to changing climatic conditions without the need for regular adjustments. Thanks to its unique design and the use of specialized materials, Stati-CAL can compensate for thermal expansion and contraction, which minimizes the risk of damage and deformation of the home structure.
  2. Flexibility and Strength: The Stati-CAL System offers a wide range of flexible and durable reinforced rods, anchors and adhesives that can be used to strengthen various types of damage and cracks. These materials have high strength and durability, which ensures the stability and reliability of the home structure for many years.
  3. The Stati-CAL technology system provides a comprehensive solution that solves building problems from foundation to roof. This eliminates the cause of the cracks, guaranteeing a long-term solution for a safe and stable future for the building for many years to come.
  4. Quality and Durability Guarantee: Stati-CAL provides a guarantee for its products, which confirms their high quality and durability. This gives home owners confidence that their structure will be reliably protected from damage and deformation for a long time.

In conclusion, the Stati-CAL system is an innovative solution for strengthening and bracing a home against cracks that overcomes many of the limitations of traditional methods. Its ability to adapt to changing conditions, flexibility, minimal maintenance requirements and guaranteed quality make Stati-CAL the preferred choice for those looking to ensure the longevity and stability of their home.
