Experimental Study of Unconfined, Confined & Retrofitted Concrete Specimen

Traditional reinforcement methods in concrete have been accepted for many years as common practice. Recently confinement has become important for improving ductility & strength and for preventing shear failure. Now-a-days internal confinement & external confinement has been very popular for seismic up gradation of existing concrete specimens. The focus of this project is to compare the behavior of unconfined, confined and retrofitted concrete specimens using innovative materials.
