Retrofit of Reinforced Concrete Buildings

Miscellaneous Deficiencies
A building is designed only for gravity loads. There is no analysis for
seismic loads.
Neglecting the effect of infill walls.
Inadequate geotechnical data.
Neglecting the P- effect.
Deficient construction practice

What is FRP?

Fibres Matrix
Provide strength Protects and transfers load
and stiffness between fibres
Carbon, glass, aramid Epoxy, polyester, vinyl ester

Fibre Composite Matrix

Creates a material with attributes superior to either component alone!
