Rehabilitation
is the process of returning a building or an area to its previous good
conditions whereas retrofitting is the process of altering a building in
retrospect to improve its performance characteristics. The structure is
retrofitted keeping in mind its purpose of use, performance requirements, level
of safety and durability required, with due consideration of the ease of
maintenance, as well as overall economy. A comprehensive plan from health
inspection through selection of retrofitting method, design of retrofitting
structure and implementation of retrofitting work is prepared based on
