This projects gives the remedial measures for the buildings that is severely affected by floods. The buildings in the flood prone areas of Chennai city is mapped using ArcGIS. Mapping of these areas helps to make immediate strategies on those areas during flood. Various techniques are incorporated to reduce the vulnerability of the building, Crystalline admixture has been used to turn the normal ordinary Portland cement to hydrophobic cement which makes it has highly water repellent and Epoxy resin is applied has a coating to the reinforced bars to make it corrosion resistant and helps it to fight against sulphate attack. These techniques is also applicable during the construction of coastal buildings with very low vulnerability. Using of these techniques in buildings helps the structure to gain more durability and sustainability especially during the time of flood.
