This book offers a complete diagnosis of concrete samples collected
from a pile cap block of residential buildings affected by internal
swelling reactions. Covering an extensive laboratory campaign to
evaluate the transport properties of concrete samples, as well as
their physical and chemical composition using advanced techniques
to analyse cores extracted from real buildings that have concrete
elements affected by internal swelling reactions (ISR). It features
several rehabilitation procedures, pile caps repair and
rehabilitation design, executed using strengthening procedures to
provide the complete restoration of the structural integrity of the
element deteriorated. These rehabilitation procedures proved to be
a good solution to retrofit pile cap deteriorated by expansions due
to internal swelling reactions of concrete. The book also offers a
systematic review of the current state of knowledge and it is a
valuable resource for scientists, students, and practitioners in
various scientific and engineering disciplines, namely, civil and
materials engineering, as well as and other interested parties.
