Successful repair material and coating applications are dependent on proper concrete surface preparation where different technologies and methods must be reviewed and characterized, as well as quality control methods used to increase the successful application of materials applied to existing concrete surfaces.
Cracks in a concrete substrate pose a challenge for coatings. Cracks that are not properly identified and addressed can lead to premature failure of the coating. This paper will discuss the forces that cause cracking in concrete structures, as well as crack types and repair techniques.

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.
Before coating concrete, you must first know what the substrate is that you are working on. Since all concrete floors are not the same there is no one, size fits all system. In fact, many buildings will have several different types of concrete floors. Add to that the different mix designs, placement techniques and environmental conditions and you end up with a menagerie of concrete floors exhibiting a wide variety of properties.
