RESEARCH ON SOLUTIONS FOR REINFORCING STEEL FRAME OF PREFABRICATED INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS DURING THE CONSTRUCTION AND RENOVATION PROCESS

Abstract

Abstract: Currently, many factories in industrial zones need to expand their usable area to increase production capacity and meet partners' orders. The simplest way is to build new factories adjacent to the existing ones. Nonetheless; for many companies that do not have enough construction area for new building or construction cost for new one. Therefore, the solution of renovating old factories is chosen. This article presents some reasonable solutions for reinforcing frame structures to renovate prefabricated factories, in order to increase usable area and meet production needs.
