The country is frequently affected by floods, cyclones and cyclone induced sorm surges and tornados. The country is also under threat of malerate to strong earthquakes due tothe geographical postion. Due to is proximity to the plate baundaris, active faults and track reords of bistorcal damaging earthquakes in and around Banglades, probability of ‘oveurtence of strorg earthquake is high. ‘The risks of loss of life and damage to property due to earthquake are almost entirely associated with ‘manmade structures. Earthquake doesn't kill peopl, buildings do. The rapid urbanization of several ities especially Dhaka, Chittagong and Sylhet during the last 25 years with most af the buildings being non-eaginesred isa big concern Public Works Demartment (PWD) with a history of over 150 years isthe Government Department Which owns almest all the public buildings of the country in connection with construction and maintenance. The department inherit the legacy from British India through Pakistan period to present independent Bangladesh. A major portion ofthe huge building stock is uneinfrcel brick masonry ‘buildings with low concrete strength, inadequate column section and non ductile RC famed structures. ‘The Bangladesh National Building Code (BNBC) was formulated in 1993 and enacted in 2006. PWD ‘has been following American Concrete Institute (ACT) code till 1993 and the BNBC subsequently for structural design purpose. But striet adherence tothe code especially the seme provisions came into practice very recently. As ares, a staggering numberof existing buildings do not meet the seismic ‘demand and capacity requirements of the curent BNBC 2015 (Final Dra July 2015), ‘The Government of Bangladesh has taken a strong stand with disaster risk reduction. Government’ success in certain areas of disaster risk mitigation such as flood, cyclone is acclaimed by the world fand taken ab role model in many courtres. In case of earthquake disaster, the county is not sufficiently prepared to reduce the risk The min reason is thit earthquake is not a frequent phenomenon in Bangladesh. The country had experienced the last devastating earhquake in 1897 (The Great Indian Earthquake with magnitude 8.9). Inthe Standing Order on Disaser (SOD) of the Government, PWD is entrusted with the task to promote seismic resistant building and to revofit public buildings which ae vulnerable to earthquake. Due 10 the lack of technical know-how, PWD could not undertake projets for retofiting, To overcome tis deficiency, PWD has undertaken a project with the technical cooperation of JICA titled “Projet for Capacity Development on Natural Disaster Resistant Techniques of Construction and Retrofitng for Public Buildings (CNCRP)". The main purpose of the four year long projet is 10 enrich the technics! knowledge and working capacity ofthe engincers of PWD for sesmic assessment, rerrofining designand construction of existing RC framed public bung (One of the oupus of this project isto develop 6 (sx) individual manuals and gilelines as stated ‘unde for fare references: “Manual for Seismic Evaluation of Existing Reinforced Concrete Buildings ‘Manual fr Seismic Retrofit Design of Existing Reinforced Concrete Bulings “Maru for Retoit Construction and Supervision of Reinforced Concrete Buildings Guidelines for Quality Control of Design nd Consrution of Reinforced Conrete Buildings ‘Manval for Seismic Design of Reinforced Conerete Buildings 6 Mamal for Vulnerability Assesment and Damage Prediction of Reinforced Concrete ‘Buildings agnnst Non Seismic Hazards ‘The series of manuals and guidelines ae the outcome of fur yearlong experiences of CNCRP project, ‘The engincers of PWD with technical assistance of the JICA experts tried to adapt the Japanese retrofit technology to local constuction conditions and practices. Seismic rtrofiing is @ specialized ‘ype of job. The professionals and practicing engineers are requested fo go through the manuals carefully and apply thei engineering judgments before application. ‘The current edtion ofthe manuals and guidelines area modest beginning. Extensive research on local conditions suc as construction materials, techniques, and practices in the light of loeal seismicity are necessary 10 upgrade the manuals. We, as professionals, believe that manuals are only a guide or ‘outline and its the expert who will have to tke the final decision about actual extent of work to be done. We expect feedback from all quarters o enc the future editions ofthe manuals ‘The Bangladesh National Building Code (BNBC 2015) does not contin any special provision for retrofit consrction. Throughout he projet duration the engineers of PWD studied and practiced the retrofit constrtion technique right from planning to supervision ofthe work. Retrofit construction is somewhat diferent from normal construction because of ts job nature. In comparison with normal ‘building constuction work, rerofiting is generally carried out under Some restrained conditions. In most of the cases the constuction is done Keeping the building operational. So the work has to be doe par by part within ie init, Bnvonmenal issues such as dust and noise comolis of umes, importance. Safety for workers as well as inmates of the building isto be ensured. Special attention i needed not to ntrrup the building services and not to ineur any damages to utility service lines such as clectiity, water, gus ec. Selection of right materials and construction techniques considering the svailabilty and suitability to local conditions are major concern. PWD engineers learat a lot expecially thraugh actual retrofitting works of one pilot project, a fre sttion and one garment factory building and various tet works while working hand in hand with Japanese counterpart. This “Masial {for Retrofit Construction Supervision of Reinforced Concrete Buildings” is the outcome of hard work arin the project tenure. The manval is equally applicable or noemal constuction supervision. ‘We deeply acknowledge the Editorial Advisory Board for ther valuble contribution. The authors fiom JICA expert team needs special mention for formulating the manuals. We also thnk all the ‘CNCRP team members for their hard work which eventually helped in publishing these manuals and guidelines. Finally I want to thank the Government of Japan and JICA for their whole hearted support and cooperation in all phases ofthe project CNCRP. Engr. Md. Kabir Ahmed Bhuiyan, Chief Engineer Public Works Department Dhaka, Bangladesh, PREFACE ‘This manual has boon prepared to assist the engineers in Bangladesh in the eonstnction and supervision of the trot works specially for RC buildings ‘This Manual const of two parts, Partl describes the revofting construction teehnology where Part-I covers to iprove the supervision skills ofthe field engineers. Although there are a number of publications in this regard available on the subject of seismic strengthening work outside Bangladesh like FEMA, ASCE, JBDPA guideline, those ae not suitable in the Bangladeshi context, Considering this issue, through the technical cooperation aroject CNCRP, between PWD and JICA, this initiative has been taken to publish a manual on seismic retrofit construction and sypervsion “The manual has besn prepared based on the studies ofthe international manuals and guidelines on this aspect and subsequently ffom the comprehensive experience gained through the implementation of retrft test work and a pilot project retrofit constuction and supervision work through the project cNCRR, The retofiting materials and methods recommended in this manual are comgatible with the sustainable use ofthe most commonly available materials and workmanship we are cenversant with in Bangladesh. ‘The manual contin sketches and detailed step by step instructions and actual remit construction photographs that wil be required by the engineers as well asthe contractors It abo contains case study of building that were restored and retrofited though the projet CNCRP, te ficilitate beter understanding of he concepts andthe system, In principle, a cocstaction supervisor is responsible for checking construction performance against design documents and building codes, the work of whom covers a wide range of areas Such as Schedule managenent, quality control of buildings, and safety management and checking the quality of building materials o be used Inthe curent ENC (BNBC 2006) construction supervision are not described in detail In reality, a ‘method of constuction supervision varies fom one supervisor to another, as the supervisors rather refer to their own experience when supervising, Consequently, the quality control for buildings is inconsistent in the country Considering the reality of construction supervision in Bangladesh as one ofthe fist outputs of the Projeet namely CNCRP, this Manual picks up and introduces the minimum requirements of supervision and most important items for the constraction supervisors. The Projet sall further develop a new manual, the contents of which shall focus more on “howto-practce” the supervision ‘work, by showingexamples and actual experiences. [eis therefore hoped tha this manual wil be useful to engineers, architects, contactors, masons and people who may be planning to retrofit existing houses and public buildings to reduce their vulnerability to frre earthquakes, Seiichi Horikoshi “Member, JICA Expert Team, CNCRP. & Senioe Manager, OYO International Corporation. ‘Md, Sobel Rahman Executive Engines, PWD Design Division IV & ‘Team Leader, Working Team-3, CNCRP. i Authors : Coauthors = ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Selict Horikoshi ‘Memer,JICA Expert Team, CNCRP & Senior Manager, OYO International Corporation (Ma.

Mortar ard conerete to be usd for rerofiting works are required to have good workability, higher strength while aggregate must have minimal segregation and voids, as wll as minimal water content ‘To ensure thes, in normal situations water reducing admixture may be used “The major reasons for using admixtures in retrofit construction conerete are: ‘+ Toxmake the concrete workable in the restited area, + To-ensure proper compaction in restricted are. ‘© To maintain the quality of concrete during the stages of mixing transporting, placing, and curing in edverse weather conditions ‘+ To overcome certain emergencies during concreting operations Despite these considerations, it should be bore in mind tht no admixture of any type or amount can be considered a substitute for good concreting practice. The effectiveness ofan admixture depends ‘pon factors such a type, brand, and amount of cementing materials; water content; aggregate shape, ‘gradation, and proportions; mixing time; slump: and temperature ofthe concrete Admixtures being considered for use in conerete should meet applicable speifications 2s in ASTM C494 (Type A to Type G) slong with BDS EN 934-1:2008 for conventional mixes, ASTM C 260 far Airenloing admictues and ASTM C 1017 fr owing concrete.

All resin components shouldbe atthe proper temperature and mixed in the correct ratio ntl there is a uniform and complete mixing of components. Resin componens are often contrasting colors, so fll mixing is achieved when color streaks are eliminated. Resins should be mined for the prescribed mixing time and visually inspected for uniformity of color. Te materis! manufacturer should supply reccmmended batch sizes, mixture ratios, mixing methods, and mixing times. Mixing ‘equipment can incude small electrically powered mixing blades or specialty units, or resins can be mixed by hand sting, if needed. Resin mixing should be in quantities sufficiently small to ensure ‘at all mixed resin can be used within the resin’ pot life. Mixed resin tht exceeds is pot life should not be used because the viscosity wil continue to increase and will adversely affect the resins ability to penetrate the surface or saturate the fiber shet, Fumes can accompany the application of some FRP resins, FRP system should be selected with consideration for their Impact on the environment, {including emission of volatile organic compounds and toxicology 458.

The reinforcing fibers should be gently pressed into the uncured saturating resin in a manner recommended by the FRP system ‘manufactre. Entrapped sir between layers should be released or rolled out before the resin sel Sufficient saturating resin should be applied to achive fll saturation ofthe fibers. Sucessve layers of saturating resin and fiber materials shouldbe placed before the complete cure ofthe previous layer of resin, If previous layers are cured, interlayer surface preparation, such as light sanding or solvent pplication as recommended by the system manufacturer, may be required, 45.6 Alignment of CFRP materials ‘The FRP-ply orientation and ply:stackng sequence shouldbe specified. Smal variations in angle, a8 litle as 5 degrees, from the intended direction of fiber aligament can cause a substantial reduction in strength and modulus.
