The goal of this presentation is to help contractors and applicators first identify the problem, understand its cause, and make an informed decision on whether to complete the surface application or to seek a professional opinion in regard to the preferred repair method.
Concrete repair is a neglected primary example of sustainable construction and green building practices. Sustainability in construction is a topic of increasing importance. Concrete has high embodied energy and much documentation exists about the sustainable nature of concrete in new construction. Concrete maintenance, protection, and repair are the ultimate acts of sustainability in construction because they preserve this embodied energy. Rating systems should be adopted to better capture the sustainable nature of concrete preservation

Coating and Lining of Concrete requires an understanding of both new and existing concrete substrate conditions. New concrete must be evaluated for surface strength, cracking, and construction defects. In addition, existing concrete must be evaluated for mechanical damage, chemical contamination, and corrosion. Evaluation methods and equipment will be discussed.
Successful repair material and coating applications are dependent on proper concrete surface preparation. Different surface preparation technologies and quality control methods are reviewed to increase the successful application of materials applied to existing concrete surfaces.
