Weak workmanship, structural defects, lack of care, atmospheric impact, and natural calamities are all causes of building distress. As a result, periodic repair and restoration of a concrete structure are needed to prolong its life and maintain structural integrity during its design life. Since the number and severity of distress are proportional to the building's age. The distressed structure should be brought to required strength by retrofitting and re-habilitation so it may be put to service without imperiling its utility and safety.
