Concrete is an inherently complex material to produce and an
even more complex material to repair. With growing pressure to
maintain the built environment, and not simply to demolish and
rebuild, the need to repair concrete buildings and other structures
is increasing and is expected to become of greater importance in
the future.
This straightforward book serves as a practical guide to
engineers on the processes to be followed in commissioning a
concrete repair. It stresses the need to fully understand the
cause, extent and location of the problem, by appropriate insitu
and laboratory testing. And it outlines the steps to a successful
repair. It includes sections on the different repair techniques,
giving good practical advice as to where and when to use them, and
the warns of the pitfalls of their incorrect use. It also includes
an up-to-date guide on the current standards for repair, and
provides a good bibliography on other sources of information and
books on the various techniques.
