by: Dr. Izwan Johari Why we need to repair? Are the damage is severe that make you need to repair?
What are the repair materials
available?
Is it worthy to repair the old
structure? Repair Methodology There is variety of materials that are used to repair and rehabilitate damage structure. ◦ Polymer concrete ◦ Epoxy grouts, mortars and coating ◦ Latex modified concrete ◦ Polymer concrete Polymer impregnation in concrete by compounds such as polymers, monomers, styrene, polyesters, methyl methacrylate ◦ Epoxy grouts, mortars and coating To bond plastic concrete to hardened concrete To bond rigid materials to each other For patch work For coating over concrete to give a preferred colour and resist the action of chemicals, water penetration, abrasion, etc. Epoxy coating are available for marine, underwater, and moisture resistant conditions. ◦ Latex modified concrete Such concrete is used to improve Bond strength Shear strength Durability of the structure There are some other materials and technique which can be used for repairing structure under special circumstances. ◦ Coating ◦ Jacketing ◦ Sand blasting ◦ Bentonite ◦ Shrinkkomp grouting ◦ Coatings Bituminous compound such as linseed oil, fluro silicate compound, paints, stryene butadyne rubber (for protection from rain) ◦ Jacketing Material used for jacketing purposes include rubber, metals, plastic, concrete, fibre-reinforced concrete, fibre- reinforced plastics, ferrorcement, polypropylene ◦ Sand blasting This is used to remove foreign materials and stains ◦ Bentonite Bentonite and kiolinite are basically clay products. They prevent penetration of water through masonry soil or concrete structure ◦ Shrinkkomp grouting This is used to prevent problem of differential shrinkage between hardened and fresh concrete. Desired Properties of repair material
Engineered materials with high performance,
high durability, but low maintenance ◦ High-performance concrete Material that are easy to use, increase productivity and reduce construction cycle time. ◦ High flow self-levelling concrete/mortar Safe material which are environmental friendly. Lightweight material that does not add to dead load. Issue related to material technology Concrete repair involves the use of wide variety of materials with different physical and chemical properties and application techniques. Its compatibility with original construction material, availability, ease of use, and toxicity.
