Abstract
In recent years numerous advanced materials technologies have appeared in the market or have been developed for use in construction. In civil engineering there are also numerous fields of application for these materials, which can be used for construction of new buildings as well as for reparation and improvement of older structures. In many cases the helical reinforcement is used for the improvement and rehabilitation of masonry structures. This type of reinforcement offers several advantages. It requires only minimal changes of the existing masonry elements and it introduces no visual changes of the rehabilitated structure. In the paper a numerical analysis and an assessment are presented of such a helical reinforcement for the improvement of axially loaded masonry columns.
