This monograph provides a guide to the construction practitioner who wants to recognize and assess the degradation that has occurred in the concrete elements of a structure. It outlines how to:
- detect deterioration;
- understand the causes;
- evaluate the condition of the structure.
The first half of the publication focuses largely on problems that arise in the use of concrete and on conditions under which concrete deteriorates. In the second half, tests for evaluating concrete structures are described (destructive and non-destructive test methods, and microscopic and instrumental analyses), and the methodology for an investigation is set out clearly.
