In order to produce a long-lasting, functional structure, any abrasive or erosive forces need to be ameliorated through its design.
This educational unit examines concrete hardening technologies – comparing features and limitations – so the best method can be selected.
Learning Objectives
- Identify problems that arise when a concrete surface experiences abrasion and erosion.
- Analyze common methods used to protect concrete and the potential limitations of each method.
- Examine how integral admixtures can improve concrete application for building professionals.
- Explore ways that integral admixtures resolved complicated building projects.
Pre-Requisite: Basic knowledge of concrete.
