Numerical Investigation of Reinforced Concrete (RC) Columns Strengthened with Ultra-High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) Jackets. [PDF]
Materials (Basel)The strengthening of existing columns using additional reinforced concrete (RC) jackets is one of the most popular techniques for the enhancement of a column’s stiffness, load-bearing capacity and ductility. Important parameters affecting the effectiveness of this method are the strength of the additional concrete, concrete shrinkage and the connection

Strengthening of reinforced concrete beams: RC versus UHPFRC layers [PDF]
IABSE Congress Reports, 2021 <p>Strengthening of Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams is of high importance for the structural upgrade of existing buildings. The majority of the existing RC structures need to be upgraded either because they are designed with old or without seismic code provisions or because of existing damages.

Retrofit of Existing Reinforced Concrete (RC) Buildings: Steel vs. RC Exoskeletons
Applied Sciences, 2022 The existing building stock is largely made up of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings, constructed between the post-World War II period and 1981, and mostly consists of buildings constructed very quickly to meet the great housing demand of this period, and buildings that do not adhere to anti-seismic and energy regulations.

Strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with prefabricated reinforced concrete (RC) plates [PDF]
Scientific Research and Essays, 2011 Reinforced concrete (RC) beams which are insufficient in terms of shear and flexural capacities are strengthened by various methods. Steel and fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) plate bonding methods are very widely used in strengthening of beams. Strengthening methods such as bonding steel and FRP plates have deficiencies as corrosion, fire and buckling ...
