Description
Summary:In this study, the compatibility of five different cement based repair materials and substrate concrete was investigated in three stages. First stage includes studying the individual properties of repair materials, and also two types of concrete, such as compressive strength, flexural strength, and dry shrinkage using BS 1881: part 116, ASTM C78-06, ASTM C157 -06 test procedure respectively. Second stage includes evaluating the bond strength of composite cylinder for different combinations of repair materials and substrate concrete. Third stage includes investigating the compatibility using a composite beam of repair material and substrate concrete under third point loading.The experimental results show that one individual property has no crucial effect on the success of concrete repair system. Bond strength and dry shrinkage however has a strong indication about the compatibility.
