A Comparative Evaluation of Geopolymer, Conventional and GFRP Retrofitting Techniques in Augmenting Seismic Robustness of RC Structures
Abstract: Abstract The requirement of retrofitting an old existing structure, rendered structurally unsafe (based on its structural health assessment) is observed to be a major challenge faced by engineers as it necessitates comprehensive and complicated repair procedures. It was further seen that during earthquake, the main reason for failure of any structure was the failure of its beam column joints, thereby making it essential to strengthen them specifically. Until recently, the …
