A Study on Structural Failures and Corrective Actions

Abstract

In the beginning, man lived in shelters made from the abundant natural resources at hand. They learned where to construct their tents to avoid the effects of natural disasters. In the event of a breakdown, they may be fixed using only naturally occurring, low-cost components. Yet, as the world's population rises and new construction techniques emerge, it becomes crucial to understand why certain buildings have structural problems and what can be done to fix them. Materials used in engineering construction may deteriorate over time for a number of reasons, leading to structural failures. This study examines the causes of structural failures such as bad planning, low-quality materials, sloppy construction, bad luck, and extreme weather. Also covered are the different approaches to carrying out the necessary repairs, commonly known as corrective actions.
