Column's
Column strengthening is a process used to add or restore ultimate load capacity of reinforced concrete columns. It is used for seismic retrofitting, supporting additional live load or dead load that not included in the original design, to relieve stresses generated by design or construction errors, or to restore original load capacity to damaged structural elements. There are several techniques which are used to strengthen reinforced concrete columns like reinforced concrete jacketing, steel jacketing, and FRP confining or jacketing.
Expansion Joints
Expansion joints are installed between the structures of separate sections of a construction so that these parts can transfer on a seasonal basis while avoiding detriments to the structural integrity or serviceability of the building. But special use and deterioration of the structure can cause the joints to become clogged and absorbed into the structure.
Slabs
Strengthening of slabs depends on the load capacity of the slab and its So the strengthening of the slabs depends on the load carrying capacity of the slab and its depth is at this point in time. It is necessary to increase strength.
Extension area
Constructions are nowadays created for many functions and purposes. A building is created to be able to meet its needs as well as remain occupied. As time passed, the occupancy number increased, triggering the requirement for building development to fulfill the need to stay occupied. This is where extension area structural strengthening was born together with the possibility for reoccupying the weakened space.
