Floor strengthening — securing and load transfer
Specialists in floor strengthening for renovation and existing structures.
Floor strengthening increases the bearing capacity of a structure and guarantees its long-term stability. Sirianni Travaux works on both old and recent buildings, for private and professional clients, with solutions tailored to each structure.
Adapting a floor to today’s loads and uses
What is floor strengthening?
Strengthening a floor becomes necessary when the existing structure is no longer suited to current or future loads. It is typically carried out during renovations, changes of use or interior reconfigurations.
This operation secures the structure while preserving what already exists, using suitable techniques such as strengthening with beams, steel sections or targeted load transfer. It is carried out after analysing the structure and can involve timber, concrete or composite floors.
Why strengthen a floor?
Strengthening a floor ensures the safety and durability of a building.
Increase the bearing capacity
Strengthening allows the floor to carry additional loads.
Secure an existing floor
It reduces the risk of deflection, cracking or settlement.
Accommodate a change of use
The floor is strengthened to take on new fit-outs.
Compatible with different materials
The solutions suit timber, concrete or composite floors.
Expertise in structural works
Every intervention is studied to suit the structure and the loads to be taken up.
