Methods
Jacketing of beams, columns using FRP,
steel plates or reinforcement.
Over-laying or under-laying of slabs~
shotcretes or FRP
Introducing shear walls wherever required,
configuring new plan
Use of viscous dampers diagonally in the
frames (EDU)
Use of Base isolators (rubber pads) in
footing

If the steel is insufficient in old building,
additional steel is provided with sufficient
jacketing in columns and beams.
If walls are cracked with bricks crushed,
cement grout with admixture is provided
Beams may be FRP wrapped or steel
jacketed.
If footing size is found insufficient (for
settlement), then area of footing is
increased
