  • More about Strengthening of Concrete Structures: Unified Design Approach, Numerical Examples and Case Studies

This book provides a comprehensive guide to strengthening concrete members using various techniques,including concrete, steel, and FRP jacketing. It discusses the preference between techniques based on strengthening limits, procedures, and application. Examples and case studies are provided to demonstrate the construction methodology and detailing for each case, including structures subjected to gravity loads, lateral loads, elevated temperature, and differential settlement of foundations.

This comprehensive book offers a unified design approach for enhancing the strength of concrete members through various techniques, including concrete, steel, and FRP jacketing. It provides a detailed explanation of the preferred techniques based on strengthening limits, procedures, and applications for each specific case. Examples are presented to evaluate existing structures and develop design equations for strengthening concrete elements, adhering to ACI design codes and standards. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the construction methodology and detailing for different strengthening techniques.

Several case studies are discussed, encompassing problem diagnosis, structure analysis, proposal for different strengthening methodologies, and implementation procedure for the selected scheme. The case studies cover structures subjected to gravity loads, lateral loads, elevated temperature, and differential settlement of foundations. They address design and construction errors, environmental impact, and soil movement. The case studies involve conventional reinforced concrete, post-tensioned, and precast concrete members.

By presenting a holistic and practical approach, this book serves as a valuable resource for engineers, architects, and researchers involved in the design and rehabilitation of concrete structures. It equips professionals with the knowledge and tools necessary to optimize the strength and durability of concrete members, ensuring the safety and longevity of buildings and infrastructure.
