Thin fiber reinforcement and rehabilitation of reinforced concrete beams Concrete jackets have several benefits, including increased ultimate load and improved serviceability limit condition. The current paper was carried out to investigate the effect of the strengthening and repairing by using reactive powder concrete(RPC) jacket for reinforced concrete beams that’s casted with recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) in enhancement the mechanical properties such as load capacity and deflection . Nine reinforced concrete beams mm were casted by using RCA with constant details and jacketed with RPC with variable of steel fiber content and jacket thickness to estimate the optimum details. The result showed the effectiveness of the proposed technique in both deflection and ultimate load.
