The calculation of the load-carrying capacity of under-designed or deteriorated beams is the first step before conducting any repair or rehabilitation work. The load-carrying capacity evaluation process involves measuring the concrete member’s existing dimensions and estimating its reinforcement area and concrete strength. Additionally, the load acting on the structural element needs to be calculated accurately. […]
