CONCRETE RESTORATION

This committee report discusses the continuing increase in utilization of concrete as a building material and its inevitable deterioration which magnifies the problem of restoration or maintenance. Discussed are topics such as remove-and-replace technique, preplaced aggregates, dry-pack method, pneumatically applied mortar, structural crack restoration, and the epoxy injection process. The techniques are presented in general terms as a possible guide to choosing methods to be considered for specific restoration projects.
