Influence of construction technology on the adhesion of remedial concrete
Abstract
An experimental study aimed at determining influence of individual parameters on the quality of remedial work is undertaken by varying the following factors: quality of damaged concrete, technology for preparing surface for remedial work, and types of remedial concrete. The results obtained are analyzed using the newly introduced criterion for theadhesion of concrete re-profiling materials. Advantages gained by the use of the concrete surface hydro-demolition and sanding procedure, latex-modified remedial concrete with bonding layer, and siliceous concrete without the bonding layer, are presented.
