Catch a Structural consultant since the work will become less painful for you. Old to new concrete extension would need application of epoxy material like Nitobond, lokfix(depending on how the structure is) and there are other techniques used. So best, reach an structural expert and throw the idea. Some of the consultants may suggest you to just go ahead without proper evaluation/inspection of your site so insist on it and proceed. best of luck.
