| Abstract: | The Belgrade Orthodox Cathedral, made of brick in lime mortar 150 years ago has the ceiling structure of its central part supported by longitudinal walls composed of lateral brick arches with steel ties at the level of the vertex and of shallow vaults between them. Loosening of steel ties through loosening of their anchorage in longitudinal walls, caused structural damages of arches, especially of their upper chords together with large deflections. The rehabilitation included the production of additional prestressed ties whereby the disturbed system of arches with ties has been reestablished. At the same time, inconvenient stresses in the arches have been corrected to a certain degree. The strengthening of the sections of the arches has been made by additional recycled masonry concrete elements compatible with the materials of the arches. |
