Strengthening of the Industrial structure.

I was assigned a project to strengthen the industrial structure Nr. Ahmedabad airport. The damage survey and site inspection have been carried out for the basic details of the structure. The steel structure analysis was done first and checks for the structural stability according to new IS codes and incremental wind forces were done and strengthening and replacing of damaged members were done. Afterwards, the assessment of the masonry wall for the earthquake forces is carried out by non-linear pushover analysis in DIANA FEA Software. Suitable strengthening work is provided according to the requirements of the masonry wall and columns.
