POLYMER MORTARS FOR THE REPAIR OF STRUCTURAL CONCRETE: THE SIGNIFICANCE OF PROPERTY MISMATCH --THE PRODUCTION, PERFORMANCE AND POTENTIAL OF POLYMERS IN CONCRETE. 5TH INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS ON POLYMERS, BRIGHTON, SEPTEMBER 24-27, 1987
The paper describes the current progress of an on-going programme of research aimed at identifying the structural effectiveness of the vast range of systems currently available for the patch repair of concrete. Materials have been categorised into nine basic groups and representative systems chosen from each for assessment. The range of appropriate mechanical properties are discussed, and established or novel test techniques used to determine these properties for the selected systems. A parallel programme of analytical and experimental work on axially loaded repaired specimens is being developed to assess relative structural performance under controlled conditions. This will be supplemented by static, fatigue and creep tests on near full-scale repaired reinforced concrete beams.(a) for the covering abstract of this congress see IRRD 814075.
