The innovations strengthening building structures are important topics. Failure in structures such as beams and columns due to time, re-functions of a building, even initial design errors that are weak or lack the safety factor of a building structure. External reinforced concrete beams are one of the beams currently being developed. It is a concrete block with reinforcement of steel reinforcement on the outer (external) of the beam. This study aims to determine the index of increasing beam strength and ductility after retrofitting external steel reinforcement, which has the dimension of beams 15 x 15 x 100 cm, repeating 12 pcs, with external reinforcement each 6 pcs 2Ø6 and 3Ø6. The results from this study are an increasing the index of beam flexural strength after retrofit with external steel reinforcement. Meanwhile, beams after retrofit with 2Ø6 external steel have an average increase index of 1.25 and 1.21 while for external steel 3Ø6 are 1.29 and 1.60 respectively. The ductility depends on the value of ultimate load and maximum deflection that occurs, where the ductility value for the comparison of each specimen experiences a reduction in the average ductility value with 2Ø6 external steel which is 37.74% and 70.95% while with 3Ø6 external steel is 61,65% and 60.62%.
