Existing reinforced-concrete monolithic slab assessment and strengthening design.
Existing reinforced-concrete monolithic slab assessment and strengthening design.
This project shows the full workflow for checking an existing cast-in-place RC slab under increased service loads and developing a practical strengthening solution.
Scope of work:
- Review of existing slab geometry, reinforcement, concrete grade and support conditions
- Load upgrade assessment for a new use case
- Bending moment, deflection, crack-control and ULS/SLS verification
- Capacity check of existing reinforcement
- Identification of critical slab strips and deficient zones
- Strengthening layout using CFRP strips on the slab soffit
- Additional top reinforcement over support bands
- Typical strengthened sections, anchorage zones and material schedule
- Implementation notes for surface preparation, epoxy bonding and inspection
The example demonstrates my approach to existing structure assessment, reinforced-concrete slab strengthening, structural calculations and construction-ready detailing.
