Abstract: Concrete structures tend to deteriorate with time and exposure due to faulty construction, cracking and even may collapse due to increase in service load. Ferrocement Jacketing is an old technology, which is widely used as a construction material with modern technology in developed and developing countries. It is one of the cost-effective materials for strengthening of concrete structures due to its improved structural properties. Today the worldwide consumption of concrete is around 30 billion which directly or indirectly leads to natural hazard. For a feasible and sustainable approach green concrete will be more considerable. In this experimental based study green concrete is designed by replacing river sand by manufactured sand which will be strengthened with the help of Ferro cement jacketing technique under the same environment conditions and same mix design composition in order to study the comparison between the strength of green concrete and conventional concrete separately and with or without jacketing.

Keywords: Ferrocement jacketing, Cost-effective, Green concrete, Manufacture sand/ M-sand, Natural hazard
