Building reinforcement is an intervention that aims to make the building more resistant to earthquakes with structural additions, in order to prevent loss of life due to the collapse or collapse of a building in a possible earthquake. Demolition and rebuilding of the building is often very costly. Building reinforcement is an alternative to this method. It is less troublesome and less costly. With the improvements made, the durability of the building is increased.
Building reinforcement companies use a wide variety of techniques to make homes or workplaces more resistant to earthquakes. However, there are some procedures that should be done before strengthening works. First of all, it is checked whether the building, which is planned to be strengthened, is built in accordance with the project. A concrete sample is then taken from the building. Various sections are also tested from the iron reinforcements in certain areas. Building reinforcement is applied with the results obtained from such tests. However, using various techniques to make a structure more durable requires knowledge and experience. Improper strengthening exercises increase the risk even more. In such applications, reinforced concrete building reinforcement technique and steel reinforcement are preferred.
Steel construction building reinforcement prices are more costly than reinforced concrete technique.
The following methods are generally preferred when reinforcement the building:
Beam and column sheathing is one of the most applied structural reinforcement applications. However, this is not a valid formula for every structure. Only after analyzing the static condition of the buildings can a project be prepared. It should also be noted that the response of each building to earthquakes or various impacts is different. In more scientific terms, each building has a unique strength and vibration movement against impact. For this reason, the techniques to be used also vary from structure to structure.
