.Abstract
The objective of this investigation is to experimentally study the behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) columns strengthened using RC and geopolymer concrete (GPC) jacketing by subjecting them to axial loading. The experimental results were analytically validated by the finite element model (FEM). For this investigation, six columns of M25- grade conventional concrete were subjected to more than 75% of the ultimate load. Then three columns were jacketed by using M40-grade RC and another three columns were jacketed by using M40-grade GPC. The interfacial behaviour of the conventional RC column and jacketed GPC columns was studied and compared. The 3D linear and FEM was employed to measure the effect of conventional RC and GPC-jacketed columns under increasing load by considering the concrete damage plasticity (CDP) and elastoplastic models with isotropic hardening. The validation against the experimental results confirmed 90% accuracy of the analytical model
