BACKGROUND
The strength of the normally reinforced concrete is a big issue in the whole world
because of the distresses produces in it. It may be caused due to poor
workmanship, design error, change of use and deterioration. Strength decreases
due to all of these problems, so the repair and strengthening of such elements are
necessary, feasible, practical alternatives to the reconstruction of the structure.
Ferrocement is the best material to increase the strength of such concrete.
Concrete with the application of ferrocement can better hold the strength as
compared to normally reinforced concrete.[1]

beam.
Laying a pair of one rectangular and two hexagonal meshes on tension side throughout the
length of beam.
Laying two pair of rectangular and hexagonal on tension side throughout the length of the beam of
beam.
Laying a pair of one rectangular and hexagonal mesh on tension side throughout the length
of the beam and also along the both sides of the beam.
Testing of the specimens (one reference and 4 strengthened with ferrocement).
Comparison of test results
This research work also has a lot of academic benefits as it can also be enhance
further by taking it as a research project for Master or PhDs level.
We are hoping full that this research work shall extent in all cities of Pakistan
and the damaging of structure will reduce.
