Structural concrete repair is a combination of understanding the cause and effect surrounding a deficiency, recognizing the skills and installation methods needed for a proper repair, and having the experience to select specific repair materials. Each repair stands alone where “one size does not fit all”. To make a long lasting cost effective Concrete Pile Repair System the first time, ICRI means and methods of construction, an engineered design, and a qualified restoration repair contractor are the three essential elements needed to ensure the expected outcome.

The PILECAP team has the experience and industry knowledge to provide structural concrete repair.

Types of Structural Concrete Restoration

The most common types of structural concrete repair needs may include concrete spalls, cracks, delamination, chemical degradation, poor construction techniques , aggressive environmental exposure, and insufficient load capacity. Each repair method must provide a monolithic, fully bonded structural outcome where the concrete element achieves or exceeds the original design strength as required. It is critical to hire a qualified concrete restoration contractor to repair each concrete condition and deliver finished results which meet the engineer’s design. These repairs will require specific knowledge and installation methods about materials such as specialty repair mortars, epoxy resins, bonding agents, integrated protective systems, and external structural strengthening in different conditions and environments.

Structural Concrete Repair Techniques

Various techniques are available for repairing concrete structures. The selection of the appropriate technique will depend on the cause of the initial damage (e.g. corrosion of the reinforcement, chemical attack, fire) and whether the repair is to be fully load-bearing or simply cosmetic. Techniques for arresting and preventing further degradation include: Cathodic protection; Chloride extraction; Re-alkalization; repair of cracks, spalls and preventive means using surface sealers and or coatings.
