                                INTRODUCTION
    1. Introduction:
       The success of repair activity depends on the identification of
       the root cause of the deterioration of the concrete structures. If
       this cause is properly identified, satisfactory repairs can be done
       for the improvement of strength and durability, thus extending
       the life of the structure, is not difficult to achieve. General
       procedure in the repair of distressed concrete structure:
       
       Support the structural members properly as required.
       
       Remove all cracked, spalled and loose concrete.
       
       Clean the exposed concrete surfaces and steel reinforcement.
       
       Provide additional reinforcing bars, if the loss in reinforcement
       is more than 10%
       
       Apply short creting/polymer concrete for patch repair work and
       grouting for porous/honeycombed concrete.
       
       Apply protective coatings over the exposed/repairedsurface.
       concrete structure:
        1.Gunite & Short crete:
     i. Guniting
                    Guniting is mechanically applied material
consisting of cement, aggregates and water. The cement and
sand are batched and mixed in the usual way and conveyed
through a hose pipe with the help of compressed air. A
separate pipe line brings water under pressure and the water
and cement aggregate mix are passed through and intimately
                                                                         10
P Dr. V. Vikhe Patil Polytechnic Loni
mixed in a special manifold and then projected at high
velocity to the surface being repaired.
                                        In good quality work,
a density around 2100kg/m3 is achieved. For effective
guniting, the nozzle should be kept at 60cm to 150cm from
the work normal to the surface. Before guniting is applied, the
old concrete surface is prepared properly, all the cracks
treated and the new reinforcement fixed in position. Cracks
wider than about 0.5 mm should be cut out and filled with
hand-applied mortar or with gunite.
    ii. Shortcreting
                       Shortcrete is defined as “ mortar or
concrete pneumatically projected at high speed onto a
surface”.
     Types of shorcrete:
     Dry mix: Dry cement, sand and coarse aggregate are
      premixed with only sufficient water to reduce dusting.
     Wet mix: The cement, sand and coarse aggregate are
      mixed with water and the resulting concrete is then
      pumped to the nozzle where compressed air propels the
      wet mixture onto the surface.

                  Applications :
Shortcrete has been used to repair :
          canal and spillway linings and walls
          the faces of dams, tunnel linings
          highway bridges and tunnels
          deteriorating natural rock walls and
          earthen slopes
          to thicken and strengthen existing concrete surfaces
2.Various types of Repair Methodologies
                                Common Causes of cracking in
                              Concrete

     Stitching
     Muting and sealing
     Resin injection
     Dry packing
     Polymer impregnation
     Vacuum impregnation
     Autogenous healing
     Flexible sealing
     Drilling and plugging
     Bandaging
     Stitching of Concrete
In this technique, the crack is bridged with U-shaped metal
units called stitching dogs before being repaired with a rigid
resin material. A non- shrink grout or an epoxy resin based
adhesive should be used to anchor the legs of the dogs.
                                                            13
P Dr. V. Vikhe Patil Polytechnic Loni
Stitching is suitable when tensile strength must be re
established across major cracks. Stitching dogs should be of
variable length and orientation.
Benefits Of Cracked Stitching
    1. Quick, simple, effective and permanent.
    2. The grout combination provides an excellent bond within
       the substrate.
    3. Masonry remains flexible enough to accommodate
       natural building movement.
    4. Non-disruptive structural stabilization with no additional
       stress
     Muting And Sealing
                                This is the simplest and most
common method of crack repair. It can be executed with
relatively unskilled labor and can be used to seal both fine
pattern cracks and larger isolated cracks. This involves
enlarging the crack along its exposed face and sealing it with
crack fillers. Care should be taken to ensure that the entire
crack is routed and sealed.
                                                               14

     Resin Injection
                   Epoxy resins are usually selected for crack
injection because of their high mechanical strength and
resistance to most chemical environments encountered by
concrete. Epoxies are rigid and not suitable for active cracks.
This method is used to restore structural soundness of
members where cracks are dormant or can be prevented from
further movements.
     Underpinning
                  Underpinning is the process of strengthening
and stabilizing the foundation of an existing building or other
structure. Foundation underpinning is a means of transferring
loads to deeper soils or bedrock.
              Purpose Of
               Underpinning
    1. To     obtain     additional
       foundation capacity
    2. To modify the existing
       foundation system
    3. To create new foundations
       through which the existing
                                                             15
P Dr. V. Vikhe Patil Polytechnic Loni
       load may be wholly or partially transferred into deeper
       soil
    4. To arrest the excessive settlement
    5. To improve the future performance of the existing
       foundations
  When Underpinning Is Required?
     Construction of a new project with deeper foundation
      adjacent to an existing building.
     Change in the use of structure
     The properties of the soil supporting the foundation may
      have changed or was mischaracterized during planning.
     To support a structure which is sinking or tilting due to
      ground subsidence or instability of the super structure
 Methods Used For Underpinning
     Pit Underpinning
     Push Piers System
     Helical Pier System
     Pile Underpinning
     Other Methods
     Chemical Grouting
     Micro fine Grouting
     Micro piles

3.Fire Damage Repairs
     Timber structures may be repaired with new timbers or
      composites of steel and timber members.
     Steel structures are normally repaired with steel.
     Both concrete and masonry structural elements are
      frequently repaired with fiber reinforced polymers
      (FRP).
     Concrete structures are occasionally repaired with
      shortcrete
     Repair of leakage structure
