Development of a Safe and Simple Rapid Emergency Retrofitting Method for Disaster-damaged Structures

-Potential Application to Actual Structures-

Abstract

This paper examined the potential application of a rapid emergency retrofitting method using hydraulic polyurethane resin to actual structures by studying the structural performance and construction performance using column members. It was found that the repair effect of the method as compared to the conventional epoxy method was confirmed by tests on a shear-damaged column member, and the construction time was confirmed to be shorter than conventional methods. From these results the potential application to actual structures was demonstrated.[This abstract is not included in the PDF]
