Abstract
As time goes on, the majority of the countries face the issue of a large number of old and/or decommissioned buildings that need rehabilitation/consolidation measures to be put in, to be further used in structural safety circumstances.
The work presents an analysis in terms of the efficiency of rehabilitation techniques that aim to improve and strengthen the structure individually or as a whole. The purpose of this study is to investigate rehabilitation methods specific to reinforced concrete columns. From a functional point of view, the rehabilitation of a structural element refers to the restoration of its active state, by restoring some of its capacities damaged due to various causes. The study presented was carried out in an old technical-administrative building that later changed its destination to an office building.
The solution proposed and adopted, as well as the action/intervention program derived from it, has as essential purpose the obtaining of innovative responses, in accordance with the new concepts.
