| Abstract | This study focuses on the strengthening improvement of reinforced concrete (RC) beams and slab using the Social Science Complex Building (SC2), Thammasat University, Rangsit Campus, Thailand, as the case study. The optimal strengthening design for RC beams in the case study building is recommended. The main focused issue is to reduce the deflections of the beams. There are three strengthening improvement methods that are compared each other. Once completing the design, this study finds that the first, the second, and the third methods have the maximum deflection at 3.57 cm, 3.35 cm, 3.51 cm, respectively. The second method offers the smallest deflection; however, the third method requires the smallest repair amount of strengthening reinforcing steels. When compare to ACI standard, it is clear that the maximum deflections all three methods are within the acceptable standard. Therefore, the third method is considered the most optimal design method. |
