Limitation
The repair and retrofitting strategies set forth in this manual are applicable
only for the residential houses that falls in repair and retrofitting categories
after Gorkha earthquake 2015 under the GoN housing reconstruction
programme.
Residential and fall under category ’C’ and ‘D’ in Building act 2055.

Simple Terms
[Repair]:
To bring back the architectural shape of the building so that all
services start working & the functioning of building is resumed
quickly.
The actions will include the following:

Simple terms
[Restoration]
To restore its original strength.
Ordinary material
The polymer latex acts in several ways:
Cement Slurry
• Water-reducing plasticizer
Cement Mortar • Improves bond between repair
Expansive Cement mortar and concrete
Quick setting Cement • Reduces permeability of repair
Gypsum Cement mortar to water
Steel Reinforcement • Acts as integral curing aid
GI wires • Increases tensile & flexural
Rolled Steel sections strength of mortar.

• In such case the damage can be repaired by removing the crushed concrete in the area
and re-concreting with rich mix of concrete

5.RCC Floor Damage and Mitigation works
If the crack are of small size then it can be repair by rich concrete mortar over lay or by some
epoxies. But if the slab has large crack with deteriorated reinforcement, they are repaired by
providing additional reinforcements dowels bars as per building codes and concreting.
Solution: Simple rich concrete and mortar overlay

Step #1:Supporting the slab, removing the concrete cover, cleaning the steel bars and coating them with epoxy
33
Stitching
• Stitching may be used when tensile strength must be re-established
across major cracks.
• Stitching involves
• Drilling holes on both sides of the crack
• Grouting in U-shaped metal units with short legs called staples or
stitching dogs or bolting with steel strips on both sides of crack
Stitching dogs

Applying External Stress: Slab
Crack
• The development of cracking
is due to the tensile stress
,thus can be arrested by
suppressing this stress
• Cracks can be closed by
inducing a compression force Tension Tie

PART-B : Seismic deficiencies and intervention
Additional intervention might required with respect to inherent structural deficiencies after turning the building
in to pre earthquake condition as per part A. This part deals with possible deficiencies in the masonry buildings
and possible deficiencies on.

IS Code for Seismic Retrofitting & Guideline of DUDBC
Measures:
1) Increasing its strength and/or stiffness
2) Increasing its ductility
3) Reducing the seismic forces.
Driving Principal
1. Minimum cost
2. Minimum intervention
3. Minimum disturbance (to structure,
occupants)

Strengthening of original structural elements
Strengthening of reinforced concrete structural elements is one method to increase the earthquake resistance of damage
or undamaged buildings. Repair of reinforced concrete elements is often required after a damaging earthquake to replace
lost strength.
Establishing sound bond between the old and the new concrete is of great importance.it can be provided by chipping
away the concrete cover of the original member and roughening its surface, by preparing the surface with epoxy prior
concreting by additional welding of bent reinforcement bars or by formation of reinforced concrete or steel dowels.
