    This document discusses concrete section enlargement, which involves placing additional reinforced concrete onto existing structural members like beams, columns, and slabs to increase their load-carrying capacity. The process typically involves adding 2-5 inches of concrete and new reinforcing bars. The stages include installing supports, removing deteriorated concrete, cleaning surfaces, adding reinforcement, forming, and applying new concrete. The technique strengthens structures but can also increase size and risks cracking or debonding under high stresses.

    CONCRETE SECTION

    ENLARGEMENT
    (REINFORCED CONCRETE JACKETING)

    Page 1
    Concrete Section Enlargement

    This method involves placing additional


    reinforced concrete to an existing
    structural member. A member can be
    increased by casting an overlay or by
    jacking form.

    This method is very efficient in increasing


    the shear capacity of columns and beams.
    It can be achieved when new stirrups are
    applied and are covered with new concrete
    layers.

    Concrete Section Enlargement

    This method of strengthening involves


    placing additional bonded reinforced
    concrete to an existing structural member
    in the form of an overlay or a jacket. With
    section enlargement for columns, beams,
    slabs, and walls can be enlarged to
    increase their load-carrying capacity or
    stiffness.

    A typical enlargement is approximately 2


    to 3 inches for slabs and 3 to 5 inches for
    beams and columns.

    Stages of Section Enlargement
    1. Temporary Supports.
    2. Removal of the deteriorated concrete.
    3. Corrosion removal from the exposed
    reinforcement.
    4. Surfaces cleaning and preparation to
    ensure bonding with the repair
    material.
    5. Replacement or addition of the
    supplementary reinforcement.
    6. Reinforcing protection (in some cases)
    7. Formwork and applying of the repair
    material.

    Advantages & Disadvantages
    Advantage:
    •Enhance Strength and Increase Ductility.
    •Increase load-carrying capacity.
    •Increase shear capacity.
    •Technique is easy and it does not need
    special design criteria.

    Disadvantage:
    •Increase in the concrete member size.
    •The need to construct a new formwork.
    •When the stresses are much, the newly
    casted concrete section may end up
    cracking or debonding from the existing
    concrete.
    •Corrosion may occur when newly
    reinforcing bars placed in close contact
    with the existing concrete that may be
    undergoing corrosive processes.
