A STRUCTURAL RESTORATION SYSTEM FOR CONCRETE SURFACES

THE APPLICATION TECHNOLOGY OF LATEX-MODIFIED PCC OVERLAYS IS PRESENTED, WITH PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO BRIDGE DECKS. IT IS NOTED THAT THE QUALITY CONTROL REQUIREMENTS ARE VERY STRINGENT, SO THAT THE PROCESS REQUIRES INTEGRATION OF HIGHLY SPECIALIZED MATERIALS, TECHNIQUES, AND TEAM ORGANIZATION. THE DURABILITY OF THE SURFACING IS SHOWN BY THE FACT THAT A HALF-INCH SECTION PLACED ON A BADLY SCALED AND SPALLED MICHIGAN BRIDGE IN 1957 IS STILL GIVING GOOD SERVICE IN SPITE OF THE ANNUAL USE OF DEICING SALTS.
