Concrete is a valuable ally in construction, but even the strongest materials require attention over time. Let’s find out together how we at RESIMIX can help you with our products in the structural restoration of concrete when it is degraded, to ensure durability, stability and safety of structures.
The versatility and strength of concrete.
Concrete, a mixture of cement, aggregates and water, is the backbone of construction. Its versatility and durability make it a key player in numerous projects, from civil to industrial construction. However, despite its excellent characteristics, concrete is not immune to the passage of time and environmental agents.
Factors of concrete degradation and targeted solutions.
This material can undergo different types of degradation over time, from chemical to physical and mechanical phenomena.
- Carbonation occurs as a result of exposure to salts in seawater or air near the sea.
- Changes in temperature and frost can weaken it.
- Concrete failure often occurs when it coats steel that undergoes an increase in volume due to oxidation.
- It is also harmful to disregard the right amounts of water and cement in making this material.
Concrete maintenance and relevant regulations.
To ensure optimal durability, it is essential to adopt maintenance procedures and subject structures, for which concrete has been used, to periodic quality checks.
In this context, restoration intervention follows the UNI EN 1504 standard, in force since January 2009. This standard establishes products and intervention procedures for the repair and protection of concrete structures, providing essential guidelines for effective interventions.
