ABSTRACT:
Buildings are exposed to continuous environmental, structural, and functional stresses during their service life. Over time, these stresses lead to deterioration such as cracking, corrosion of reinforcement, dampness, and loss of strength. Repair and maintenance are essential to restore the structural safety, serviceability, and appearance of buildings. This paper presents a case study on the repair and maintenance of an existing reinforced concrete residential building. The study includes condition assessment, identification of defects, causes of deterioration, repair techniques adopted, and preventive maintenance measures.
