` Concrete expected to give trouble free service
throughout design life.
` Concrete decay is cancerous caused by
carcinogenic agents.` Physical damage caused due to fire,explosion and
restraints both external and internal.

` Specify and introduce Chloride limit
` Maintain a low water-cement ratio in concrete
` Provide adequate cover to the reinforcing steel
`
Provide adequate curing` Use of water-reducing admixtures
` Consolidating the concrete thoroughly
` Use post tensioning
`
Include provision for immediate repair of cracks

` Latex modified concrete is prepared by adding
liquid styrene butadiene latex to conventional
concrete
` Latex modified concrete should be placed in theevening or at night to reduce cracking

` Silica fume reacts with calcium hydroxide to form
additional cementitious material
` Silica fume is extremely puzzolonic material that
reacts with calcium hydroxide` Performance of concrete is good to excellent

` Pre-cleaned reinforcing steel bars are protectedwith a coating of powdered epoxy
` Coating blocks chloride ions
` Performance is poor to excellent

` Membranes and sealers help prevent chloride
entry
` Urethanes, neoprene, or epoxies are usually used
to built up in multiple layers of membranes` The performances of these materials vary
depending upon the base of the sealer
` Sealers- linseed oil and sophisticated silanes and
siloxanes

` controls corrosion of steel by applying direct
current
` is a complicated process that requires extensive
pre installation and monitoring` Corrosion of steel in concrete is a electrochemical
process
` Steel (reinforcement) inside the concrete act as
cathode and provide protection` Concrete act as anode
` Not recommended for carbonated concrete

` Electro Osmosis makes it possible to restore the
initial alkalinity of the concrete
` externally applied alkaline gel covering the
external conductor is drawn` alkalinity increase of a carbonated concrete
restores the passivation
` The carbonate problem is solved

` combine other organic chemicals for successfully
inhibiting corrosion
` inhibitor forms a protective barrier on the
reinforcing steel` barrier prevents reaction between the iron and
chloride

` . Experience has shown that there are certain
portions of exposed concrete structures more
vulnerable than others to deterioration from
weathering in freezing climates` Concrete sealing compounds and coatings that
provide good protection from weathering

` Determine the cause(s) of damage
` Evaluate the extent of damage
` Evaluate the need to repair
` Select the repair method` Prepare the old concrete for repair
` Apply the repair method
` Cure the repair properly

` Surface Grinding
` Using Portland Cement Mortar
` Dry Pack and Epoxy-Bonded Dry Pack
` Preplaced Aggregate Concrete` Replacement Concrete

` It can be used to repair some bulges, offsets andother irregularities.
` Grinding of sufaces subjected to cavitation erosionshould be limited in depth so that no aggregateparticles more than 1/16th inch in cross section areexposed to finished surface.
` Grinding of surfaces exposed to public viewshould be limited in depth so that no aggregate
particles more than 1/4 inch in cross section areexposed at the finished surface

` Dry pack is a combination of Portland cement and
sand passing a No. 16 sieve
` Dry pack should be used for filling holes having a
depth equal to, or greater than, the least surfacedimension of the repair area; for cone bolt, she
bolt etc.

` Preplaced aggregate concrete is made by
injecting portland cement grout, with or without
sand, into the voids of a formed, compacted mass
of clean, graded, coarse aggregate` The preplaced aggregated is washed and
screened to remove fines before placing into the
forms

` Concrete repairs made by bonding new concrete
to repair areas without use of an epoxy bonding
agent or mortar grout applied on the prepared
surface should be made when the area exceeds 1square foot and has a depth greater than 6 inches.
` Replacement concrete repairs are made by
bonding new concrete to the repair areas without
the use of a bonding agent or Portland cementgrout

` Portland cement mortar may be used for repairing
defects on surfaces not prominently exposed
` Repairs may be made either by use of shotcrete
or by hand application methods

` Epoxybonded epoxy mortar should be used where
the depth of repair is less than 1-1/2 inches and
the exposure conditions are such that relatively
constant temperatures can be expected` Epoxy mortars have thermal coefficients of
expansion that may be significantly different from
conventional concrete

` difference in potential can result in the formation of
a galvanic corrosion cell with accelerated
corrosion at the repair perimeters
` The epoxy bond coat and epoxy mortar createzones of electrical potential that are different from
the electrical potential in the surrounding concrete

` Polymer concrete (PC) is a concrete systemcomposed of a polymeric resin binder and fine andcoarse aggregate
` Water is not used to mix polymer concrete
` PC is commonly used to repair potholes inconcrete highway bridge decks,
` thereby eliminating the necessity of long andcostly road closures or detours
` the monomer molecules are chemically linked andcross linked to form a hard, glassy plastic knownas a polymer.

` Silica fume concrete is conventional portland
cement concrete containing admixtures of silica
fume
`
Silica fume is a finely divided powder byproductresulting from the use of electric arc furnaces

` Repair and prepared corrected area should be
carried out systematically
` application of protective coatings are required to
be properly supervised and carried out.` Surface defects like bugs holes and honey comb
require immediate repairs
