Description
A Heritage Prestressed Concrete Structure of early years is found to be in good serviceable condition after over 40 years of use. It needed to be reassessed and retrofitted to ascertain its continued use for next 15-20 years period at least in light of the stringent requirements for nuclear safety related structure. This was successfully done through a complex process of health/ageing effect studies, difficult and advanced analytical methods and a simple but effective strengthening / rehabilitation method is a tribute to many working teams from different organisations
