Abstract

RC structures maybe damaged or collapsed because of sustaining additional loads such as seismic load, change in live load etc. Retrofitting is one of the best solution to avoid the collapse of the structure. In this paper the beam is retrofitted by precast slurry infiltrated fibrous concrete. It is a type of high performance fiber reinforced concrete made by infiltrated Glass fiber bed with a specially designed cement based slurry. In this paper M sand is used for fine aggregate. The experimental program is to be done to access the flexural behavior of the strengthened conventional and GFRC. The flexural behavior is to be analyzed by two-point loading test.
