The world faces many problems facing concrete members, such as corrosion, cracking and chemical corrosion. Many engineers’ resort to restoration and reinforcement to maintain concrete structures. Sustainable restoration aims to preserve concrete structures while reducing environmental impacts. Sometimes, loading on multiple beams is chosen to ensure the safety of concrete structures. Therefore, the trend has been to conduct a load test on several concrete beams and take one of them as a reference to ensure the safety of variables with the change of different techniques. The science of restoration and reinforcement of concrete structures is considered one of the most required sciences at the present time due to the widespread use of concrete structures in our country, as well as the constant exposure of these structures to the dangers of cracking and attacks by various environmental factors that affect these structures. Therefore, it is often necessary to restore damaged elements and sometimes reinforce these elements to withstand many loads. Sustainable materials provide a promising alternative to traditional concrete restoration. These materials provide multiple environmental, health and economic benefits.
