COMMON CAUSES OF BEAM FAILURE
Excessive
Loading
Built-up roofing, rooftop equipment, ceiling systems, sprinklers, or added mechanical loads.
Material
Defects
Knots, grain issues, workmanship problems, misdrilled holes, or poor laminations.
Shear & Connection Failures
Failures near ends, joints, bolt locations, or areas of concentrated stress.
Impact
Damage
Forklift strikes and warehouse activity causing cracks, crushing, or member displacement.
Environmental Exposure
Heat, moisture, chemicals, freezing conditions, decay, or condensation damage.

SPS GLU-LAM REPAIR SOLUTIONS
We process repair solutions with minimal interference to the existing structure for the most structurally sound & cost-saving repair.
Inspection & Documentation
Existing conditions, beam damage, loading concerns, and repair priorities.
Engineering Coordination
Repair calculations, specifications, and design/build recommendations.
Emergency Shoring
Temporary support to stabilize occupied or active facilities when needed.
Construction & Installation
Beam repair, post-tension reinforcement, purlin repair, and structural upgrades.
POST-TENSION SYSTEMS
For Glu-Lam Beam Strengthening & Reinforcement
SPS utilizes post-tension rods and cables to reinforce existing Glu-Lam members, restoring and increasing load capacity, reducing deflection, restoring strength, and extending service life while avoiding costly full replacement.
KEY BENEFITS OF POST-TENSION STRENGTHENING
RESTORES CAPACITY
Restores structural capacity lost due to fire damage, moisture intrusion, overload, or age-related deterioration.
CORRECTS DEFLECTION
Reduces sag and restores camber to beams and purlin lines.
COST-EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVE
Extends the service life of existing glulam members and avoids costly full replacement.
MINIMIZES DISRUPTION
Less disruptive than full member replacement or major structural modifications.
SUPPORTS ADDED LOADS
Accommodates HVAC systems, ceilings, sprinklers, rooftop equipment, and other new loads.
