Concrete Enlargement and Jacketing: Enhancing the Strength of Reinforced Concrete Structures

 

Concrete enlargement or jacketing is one of the most effective and widely utilized techniques for strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) members. This process involves adding a layer of new concrete around the existing RC elements, along with additional reinforcement, to improve their load-bearing capacity, durability, and overall performance. The design of the jacket, including the size, number, and diameter of the reinforcing bars, is determined based on a detailed structural analysis of the existing elements.

 

Why Concrete Enlargement is the Best Choice

 

1. Ability to add significant additional capacity to existing columns, beams, walls, and slabs.

2. Increases the axial, shear, and bending capacities of structural members.

3. Improves the stiffness and ductility of structural components.

4. Offers a uniform appearance that blends well with the existing structure.

5. Provides high levels of fire resistance.

 

When Concrete Strengthening is Necessary

 

Strengthening of reinforced concrete structures is one of the most important tasks normally associated with the maintenance of concrete structures.

Maintenance is required to ensure the efficient serviceability of the structure when it is no longer considered safe due to the following reasons:

1. Increased specifications in the design code.

2. Overloading.

3. Under-design of the existing structure.

4. Lack of quality control or workmanship issues.

5. Environmental factors (e.g., concrete corrosion).
