Energy Saving with Rehabilitation Solutions for Existing Structures

摘要

The paper deals with aspects regarding energy saving of reinforced concrete existing structures strengthened in seismic zones. Some case study and the rehabilitation of characteristic structures are analysed. The rehabilitation solutions were chosen in accordance with the actual stage of building deterioration as well as function of the actions characteristics. Classic (reinforced concrete and/or steel) and modern (Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers) materials and technologies for strengthening have been used. Finally, the total cost of strengthening solution and the energy used with raw materials are presented.
