Abstract: Retrofitting is the alteration of existing structures to make them continuously impenetrable to seismic development, ground development, etc. A large number of the current strengthened solid structures all through the world are in pressing need of recovery, fix or reproduction in light of crumbling because of different factors like consumption, absence of itemizing, disappointment of holding between pillar segment joints and so on. Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composite has been acknowledged in the development business as a promising substitute for fixing and in augmenting the quality of Reinforced concrete structures. This paper exhibits a test study on fortified solid shafts retrofitted with different kinds of filaments remotely. The goal of this examination is to explore the conduct of shafts in the wake of retrofitting utilizing different normal and engineered filaments including steel strands, polypropylene strands, glass filaments, Basalt filaments, carbon filaments and so forth.

Keywords: Epoxy Bonding Agent, Glass Fiber, Basalt Fiber, Repair and Rehabilitation.
Scope of the Article: Materials Engineering
