Most of the reinforced concrete framed buildings commonly
used in developing countries are not secure against earthquakes. Studies on
seismic performance of reinforced concrete framed 13 structures showed that;
lateral stiffness often needs to be improved. In this study, in order to 14
rehabilitate the structures, performances of ferrocement panels can be used to
strengthen the 15 existing hollow brick infill walls such that they act as
cast-in-place concrete in fills improving 16 the lateral stiffness is
researched. Ferrocement panels are not only to be as light as can be 17 carried
by two people easily, but also from the low cost and usefulness against
tensional and 18 loads point of view. Previous researches results indicated
that strength, stiffness, energy 19 dissipation and story drift characteristics
of the reinforced concrete framed building structures 20 can be rehabilitated
by the eco-friendly, cost effective and practically applicable seismic 21
retrofitting technique that does not need evacuation of the building with these
high-performance ferrocement panels.
