RAAC Lift® is the fast, cost-effective and non-invasive way to mitigate the risks from RAAC deflection

We have developed RAAC Lift® in consultation with leading scientists and structural engineers to deliver a long-term solution to the significant challenges associated with deflection of RAAC planks.

It removes long-term risk-factors such as ponding, using an innovative mechanism for jacking up deflected panels and evenly transferring load to the new support structure.

Supporting and strengthening roofs for the long term, without the need to replace RAAC panels.

Proven technology
A highly effective remediation solution that has been deployed in over thirty settings in the past twenty years
Extend building lifespan
Materially reduces end bearing load, deflection and ponding — directly addressing key causes of panel failure
Rapid deployment
Lightweight construction and innovative design mean it can be implemented rapidly during off-peak hours
Cost effective
Long-term efficacy and a rapid installation process deliver an unsurpassed cost-to-benefit ratio
