Abstract:
This study is aimed to strengthening of deficient columns incorporating with different methods to reduce stress concentration at corners. Comparative study is carried out with column jacketed with and without steel fiber in mortar mix. In total, twenty seven reinforced concrete columns were loaded to ultimate loading. From the experimental investigation it is observed that improvement in ultimate load carrying capacity of the ferrocement jacketed columns in comparison to non-jacketed columns. Four techniques and variations in those techniques are proposed to address the problem.
