Performance Evaluation Study of an Innovative Material to Improve The Strength of Conventional Concrete
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 0
Abstract
Concrete is an absolute essential material use for construction. Despite of its versatility in construction. It is known to have several limitations. It is having limited ductility and less resistance to cracking, so concrete structure suffers a large amount of distortions in strength under the effect of external forces. Some recently developed materials and technique can play virtual role in structural repair, strengthen and retrofitting of existing building, weather damaged or undamaged condition. By use of standard and innovative repair material appropriate technology, proper quality control, are the key factors for strengthen and retrofitting of concrete. The main objective of our study is to suggest best innovative material and techniques to enhance the strength of concrete. The natural calamities such as earthquake, tsunami is not in our control but solution to the damaged structure is available with engineers through retrofitting and rehabilitation technique.
