Abstract
Properties of new reinforcing element — composite reinforcement, are considered. Feasibility study of using this material for modernization of buildings, namely for vertical extension with additional storey, is carried out. Comparative analysis of performance is conducted for metal and composite reinforcement, as well as calculations are performed which results will be used for determination of advantages and disadvantages of this innovative reinforcing method. An important factor for development of projects of building vertical extension after quite a long operation period is a proper selection of construction materials and strength analysis considering the structures to be erected. Calculation of a floor slab erected with using composite fiberglass reinforcement is represented. Results obtained in the calculation and the analysis of the data prove high efficiency of this reinforcing method through the decrease of loads on lower storeys of the building, economic feasibility and other factors.
