Concrete Repair To En 1504

The Construction Sector Is Increasingly Focused On Repair As concrete structures are maintained longer for both environmental and financial reasons, the diagnosis, design, and selection of products, and repair work all depend on the individual condition of the buildings and require specialist knowledge from everyone involved. Concrete Repair to EN 1504: Diagnosis, Design, Principles and Practice provides relevant background and practical guidance on concrete repair. This book is based on the new European Standard EN 1504, which is used as the actual basis for concrete repair works, in Europe and beyond. Offers a Systematic and Thorough Approach It includes both practice and theory, and provides an ideal basis for understanding and designing repair works. It addresses building materials, deterioration mechanisms, diagnosis, load-bearing capacity and safety, repair principles and methods, repair materials, execution of repair works, quality control, inspections, monitoring, and maintenance and building management systems right through to building regulations and standards. It also covers deterioration mechanisms of concrete and steel reinforcement, diagnosis methods, principles of repair and protection, properties and fields of application of repair materials, as well as methods of execution, including quality control to EN 1504. Describes the theoretical background of corrosion and diagnosis methods (which are not covered by the EN 1504 series) Provides the systematics of principles and methods in detail Includes dedicated comprehensions which enables the reader to quickly access the knowledge The text provides a complete overview and is a practical resource for owners, designers, product suppliers, testing institutes, and consulting engineers, as well as for students in civil engineering.

Originally published by the Danish Standards Institute, this guide to the EN 1504 standards addresses the principles, methods, and the choice of repair materials and systems for the rehabilitation of damaged concrete structures. The standards not only provide a common set of values for the industry but also support the improvement of supply chain integration and specialist inputs in the early design stages of projects, where this can be most beneficial. The book gives practical guidelines to the main principles of the EN 1504 standards along with worked examples. It also gives concise explanatory notes to the annexes, which will help any building and construction professional fulfill the requirements for repairing concrete.

Concrete Repair to EN 1

Eco-efficient Repair and Rehabilitation of Concrete Infrastructures, Second Edition provides an updated state-of-the-art review on the latest advances in this important research field. The first section is brought fully up-to-date and focuses on deterioration assessment methods. Section two contains brand new chapters on innovative concrete repair and rehabilitation materials including: fly ash-based alkali-activated repair materials for concrete exposed to aggressive environments; repairing concrete structures with alkali-activated metakaolin mortars; concrete with micro encapsulated self-healing materials; concrete repaired with bacteria; concrete structures repaired with engineered cementitious composites; concrete repaired by electrodeposition; the assessment of concrete after repair operations and durability of concrete repair. The final section has also been amended to include six new chapters on design, Life-cycle cost analysis and life-cycle assessment. These chapters include maintenance strategies for concrete structures; a comparison of different repair methods; life cycle assessment of the effects of climate change on bridge deterioration; life-cycle-cost benefits of cathodic protection of concrete structures; life-cycle cost analyses for concrete bridges exposed to chlorides and life-cycle analysis of repair of concrete pavements. The book will be an essential reference resource for materials scientists, civil and structural engineers, architects, structural designers and contractors working in the construction industry. Covers the latest research findings on eco-efficient repair and rehabilitation of concrete infrastructures Provides comprehensive coverage from damage detection and assessment, to repair strategies and structural health monitoring Presents a diverse author base that offers insights on construction practice and employed technologies worldwide Includes an entire section on NDT, innovative repair, and rehabilitation materials, as well as case studies on lifecycle cost analysis and lifecycle assessment
