It is possible to increase the bearing capacity of brick columns and greatly improve the lateral resistance of brick columns under the condition that the size of brick columns does not increase much.

The characteristics of the method of strengthening the brick column by steel jacketing.

It is possible to increase the bearing capacity of brick columns and greatly improve the lateral resistance of brick columns under the condition that the size of brick columns does not increase much.

General method of reinforcing brick columns with outsourced angle steel

First, remove the brick and the four corners of the painted layer and wash them clean.

Then put a layer of 10mm thick cement mortar on the surface of the brick column.

Then the angle steel will be pasted around the loaded brick column and clamped with clamping tools.

Finally, use the batten plate to connect the angle steel to the whole, remove the fixture and whitewash the cement slurry to protect the angle steel.

Angle steel should be anchored into the foundation and the top should be anchored reliably. The angle steel should not be less than L50*5.
