Description / Abstract:
This guide discusses material selection for several types of
repairs and materials used in their repair:
a) Concrete replacements, categorized on the basis of the depth
and orientation of repair;
b) Overlays, categorized on the basis of their thickness;
c) Crack repairs, categorized on the basis of crack stability,
crack width, and other service conditions;
d) Surface sealers and traffic-bearing elastomeric coatings,
categorized on the basis of their water and chloride ion
permeability;
e) Anti-carbonation coatings, categorized on the basis of their
carbon dioxide diffusion;
f) Reinforcing steel coatings, embedded galvanic anodes,
concrete bonding agents and procedures, crystalline pore blockers,
and surface-applied, penetrating corrosion inhibitors, categorized
on their ability to alter and improve various concrete
properties.
