A wealth of recent research into the continued deterioration of
reinforced concrete structures has led to a review of methods of
investigation and repair techniques. This thoroughly revised and
updated new edition brings together the fundamental aspects of this
world wide problem and offers advice on how investigations,
diagnosis and consequent remedial work should be carried out.
Repair, Protection and Waterproofing of Concrete Structures
embraces reinforced concrete buildings, water-retaining and
water-excluding structures, marine structures and bridges. The nine
chapters also cover deterioration and renovation of concrete floors
and repair and waterproofing of concrete roofs. The deterioration
of concrete liquid retaining structures, including sewers, caused
by chemical attack is alos discussed and suggestions made for
remedial work. The author discusses the newer methods of cathodic
protection, realkalisation and desalination to inhibit corrosion of
reinforcement in existing structures. Each chapter concludes with
an extensive bibliography.
