Hospital Strengthening

Project Overview:

The Ganquan building of Tongji Hospital is a basement floor with eleven stories on the ground and a frame shear wall structure. Due to the large amount of tilted housing and increased load in local area, reinforcement of foundation, beam, slab and column in relevant area is necessary.

Business type:

Retrofitting and strengthening

Reinforcement scheme:

1) rectify and reinforce the foundation: use the combination of earthenware and anchored static pressure piles to reinforce the foundation.

2) slab and beam are strengthened by sticking carbon fiber reinfroced polymer(CFRP).

3) reinforce the frame beam by expanded section method.

4) reinforce the frame column by expanded section method.

5) add concrete floor above the original floor slab.
