Rehabilitation and modernization of buildings - case study

Journal Title: Construcţii - Year 2018, Vol 19, Issue 1

Abstract

Over time, the building materials and the construction methods have evolved from simple to complex, from massive to slender. The study and development of rehabilitation and modernization methods for existent structures is a permanent concern of civil engineers and it is an activity which involves a team effort in order to preserve the specific characteristics of a certain building, but also to try and find new methods for modernizing the existing ones with respect to the efficiency and costs generated. The aim of this paper is to present the rehabilitation process of a building, the expertise and the analysis of the best options chosen for the modernization process.
