CONCRETE REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE ILLUSTRATED. PROBLEM ANALYSIS. REPAIR STRATEGY. TECHNIQUES
Concrete repair is a complex process, presenting unique challenges very different from those experienced in the field of new concrete construction. Concrete repair must successfully integrate new materials with old materials, forming a composite capable of enduring the exposures of use, environment and time. The dynamics of new materials interacting with in-place materials is still and emerging science. Enhanced methods of analysis, improved strategies and techniques and new materials will facilitate quality growth of the concrete repair industry. The purpose of this book is to present concrete repair as an integrated process of analysis, strategy and technique relating concrete behavior directly to the field repair process. Topics covered include: concrete behavior and evaluation, surface repair, strengthening and stabilization, and concrete protection.
