INTRODUCTION
Concrete construction is generally expected to give trouble free service through out its
intended design life. However, these expectations are not realized in many constructions because of
structural deficiency, material deterioration, unanticipated over loadings or physical damage.
Premature material deterioration can arise from a number of causes, the most common being when
the construction specifications are violated or when the facility is exposed to harsher service
environment than those expected during the planning and design stages. Physical damage can also
arise from fire, explosion - as well as from restraints, both internal and external, against structural
movement. Except in extreme cases, most of the structures require restoration to meet its functional
requirements by appropriate repair techniques.
1 An Overview of Present Repair Practices
Since 1950s, the construction activity in India has been increasing geometrically without matching
increase in the availability of quality inputs, in terms of materials and skilled workmen. The gap
between the quality planned and the quality achieved continues to become wider. The factors
contributing to damages/distresses in buildings have, thus, become intrinsic right from the construction
stage. Often these are concealed under external renderings and the defect takes time to manifest itself.
Construction documents contain adequate specifications and instructions required to execute quality
works. However, they remain as written document without achieving the desired level of results,
because of lack of understanding of their significance by the field engineers. Standard cube test results
are taken as a measure of quality in the construction. Whereas the factors such as method of placing,
compaction and curing of concrete, which have significant influence on the quality achieved in the
hardened concrete, are given scant attention. Many a times, the quality of concrete as placed and
hardened in position has no correlation to the cube test results, which are used for quality control
measures.
Procedures, mandatory or otherwise, for periodic inspection of buildings and structures and
documenting defects, like cracks, excessive deflections, corrosion of reinforcement etc., in logical
manner, and recording of structural repairs already carried out, are generally not followed or
maintained. In some buildings, only visual inspection is carried out for preparing maintenance budget
estimates and this exercise is often left to the engineers who have no experience in such problems.
Concrete constructions require proper care in the form of regular maintenance. Buildings remain
for several years without getting due attention. Water stagnation, paint pealing, plaster break- off,
fungus growth, cracking of external rendering and cover concrete are common and widespread.
Penetration of moisture into reinforced
Concrete components promotes corrosion process and further damages the concrete cover.
The engineers responsible for maintaining buildings often begin repair activity without adequate
understanding of the factors responsible for the defects. The repairs strategy adopted is replacement of
damaged materials without dealing with the real problems. Many engineers unintentionally attempt
treating the symptoms, instead of dealing with the cause and effect phenomenon. Such an approach
may offer a quick action with minimum inconvenience to the occupants. But in this process, there is a
strong possibility that the source and cause for the distress remain unattended and continue to cause
problem even after the superficial repairs have been executed. If structural defects are dealt with in this
fashion, it remains only as defects camouflaged beneath finishes, which gives a false sense of safety to
the occupants allowing the problem to continue without getting treated. A rational approach to any
repair and rehabilitation work is to consider the source of the problem and the symptoms together.
1.2
Distress Identification
Before attempting any repair procedure it is necessary to have a planned approach to investigate
the condition of concrete and reinforcement. While the diagnosis of damage or deterioration in some
cases is reasonably straightforward, it may not be so in many cases. Particularly difficult are cases in
which the cause and effect phenomenon cannot be readily explained or when prognosis in terms of
long-term performance of restored structure is to be made.
This will require a thorough technical inspection and an understanding of the behaviour of the
structural component, which is being repaired. Inspection calls for detailed mapping of affected areas,
documentation of type and location of symptoms and their history and photographic evidences. It may
also include the environmental factors, which are likely to accelerate the damage process. Existence of
concealed ducts, water lines, wet areas require special attention. Some areas impose severe limitations
on access to damaged areas. A comprehensive inspection data helps in making an effective strategy for
repair and rehabilitation.
Non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of concrete and components are well known and extensively
used. While they are very good tools for establishing quality levels in new constructions, applying
these techniques to damaged structures requires certain level of experience and understanding of
limitations of these methods. Solving the problem successfully is entirely dependent on the ability of a
team of experts engaged to do this job. Both field and laboratory tests are available. It is important to
select the appropriate Non Destructive Evaluation (NDE) techniques and location of investigation.
This is a specialised job and requires sophisticated instruments and trained personnel. A single
technique may not be adequate and a combination of techniques has to be adopted to get a truly
representative data on the condition of the building.
Concrete normally provides excellent protection to reinforcing steel. Notwithstanding this, a large
number of cases have been reported in which corrosion of reinforcement has caused damage to
concrete structures within a few years from the time of construction. One of the most difficult
problems in repairing a reinforced concrete element is to handle corrosion damage. Reinforcement
corrosion caused by carbonation is arrested to a great extent through repairs executed in a sound
manner. However, the treatment of chloride-induced corrosion is more difficult and more often the
problem continues even after extensive repairs have been carried out. It invariably re-occurs in a short
period of time. Repairing reinforcement corrosion involves a number of steps, namely, removal of
carbonated concrete, cleaning of reinforcement,
application of protection coat, making good the reduced steel area, applying bond coat and cover
replacement. Each step has to be executed with utmost care. When chlorides are present in concrete, it
is extremely difficult to protect reinforcing steel from chloride attack, particularly in cases where
chlorides have entered through materials used in construction and residing in the hardened concrete.
For such cases, new technologies are available which require specialists to execute the job.
1.3 Repair Management
Three distinct stages are to be recognized while taking up a repair job. The first stage involves
documentation of damage, its type and extent, prognosis of repaired structure and recommendations on
repair methodology. For major jobs it will be worth while to engage an independent consultant to do
this job. The second stage requires preparation of detailed drawings, sketches, execution guidelines and
notes, material and works specifications and tender document. The tender document should adequately
cover various elements to the extent possible. Specific provisions in terms of material specifications
should be included. It should clearly define modalities of payment, works measurements and records.
This will facilitate in receiving a fair and competitive proposal for the repair works. Guidelines
prepared for executing the job should be practical and flexible so as to encourage the ingenuity of the
contractor executing the job. The third stage is actual execution of repairs. This is a specialised
job and those who have the necessary expertise and resources in terms of tools and plants should be
engaged. The supervising engineer should have a good understanding of the procedures and give an
attentive supervision. In some cases it may become necessary to monitor the effectiveness of repairs by
various tests before and after the repairs have been executed.
Various options in terms of techniques and repair materials are available for executing repair jobs.
Selecting a most appropriate material and repair methodology is very important to achieve durable,
effective and economic repairs. Matching the response of repaired sections with the main structure is
an important task. Compatibility of materials and matching specifications are essential in any repair
job. Just as building durable construction requires understanding of structural engineering, material
science, and environment/ exposure conditions, repair jobs also require the same level of attention in
these areas.
The buildings taken up for repair may have structural deficiency and in such cases it is necessary to
consider provisions for strengthening through bracing and creating alternative load transfer framing to
give additional reserve strength to the structure for adequate safety and serviceability response. If this
aspect is overlooked, the symptoms are likely to reappear even after repairs have been carried out.
Familiarity with repair methodology and repair materials is very essential. General civil
engineering practice does not offer much scope in this area. The engineer undertaking such specialised
jobs should have good knowledge of new materials, repair methodologies, its limitation and the
fundamentals of structural engineering to ensure safety and serviceability of the buildings during repair
and thereafter.

CHAPTER 4 STRUCTURAL REPAIR

CHAPTER
4A
Refer Introductory and General Notes along with the following Chapter Notes :
Chapter Notes :
GENERAL :
Structural Rehabilitation is a specialized subject in itself. As such before undertaking the
structural repair of a building, following principles may please be clearly understood.
(i)
Detailed inspection and distress mapping of a structure is necessary. In distress

mapping every part of structure is inspected & the extent of damage & its location
needs to be marked on a drawing.
(ii)
In case visual inspection is not found to be sufficient NON DESTRUCTIVE TESTS

need to be carried out to assess the extent of damage & residual life of a structure.
(iii)
Structural Rehabilitation with construction chemicals are expensive. As such cost

benefit analysis should be prepared before undertaking repair.
(iv)
These repairs are basically Design Repairs. Like a building is designed before
undertaking construction, these repairs are required to be Designed before
undertaking rehabilitation. As such maximum Data should be collected through visual
inspection, NDT & material testing to prepare design of repair.
(v)
The aim of rehabilitation should be extend the life of structure by at least 30 years
INFORMATION FOR GUIDENCE

Typical steps involved in repairing R.C.C. structures which have spalled concrete due to
corrosion of reinforcement is as follows:
(i)
Remove the loose concrete & expose the corroded reinforcement. Concrete if strong
need not be broken, however at the same time, it should also be ensured that no loose
concrete, which can be removed is left.
(ii)
Clean the corroded bars with mechanical means like wire bush, sand paper etc.
(iii)
Apply rust removing chemical solution.
(iv)
Apply rust prevention (Protection from corrosion) chemical.
(v)
Apply bond coat on concrete area to be repaired
(vi)
Apply polymer/Epoxy/repair mortar
(vii)
Finish the complete surface with ordinary plaster as a finishing coat.
The above guideline is very brief and generic. Many other alternatives like rust converters,
migratory corrosion inhibitors, cathodic protection techniques, bond coats of several types, ready mix
polymer mortars etc. are available. Hence, detailed study should be undertaken for deciding the
methodology of repair.
IMPORTANT
There are large number of companies manufacturing construction chemicals. The products
of each company is typical. While approving the product, it should be ascertained that minimum
technical standards as given in Specification are fulfilled. Further necessary tests should be ordered to
ascertain quality as required.
MEASUREMENT
In all cases of repairs by construction chemicals, the required quantity of chemicals shall be
first supplied in depot, which shall be recorded in MB by Sectional / Sr. Sectional Engineer. This shall
be further 100% test checked by ADEN. The quantity then shall be issued back to contractor for repair
work. The day to day consumption record shall be maintained as is done for cement.
PRECAUTIONS
Construction chemicals are manufactured by more than 50 companies and their numbers are
increasing. Every company has its own brand names. Due to this, it is difficult to determine the
product which will be economical as well as technically correct choice. However, some basic
principles can be applied in this regard.
i)
It is better to have a company with ISO 9001 certification.
ii)
Generally IS codes/standards are not available for repair chemicals. In such cases,
appropriate ASTM standards/B.S. Standards should be referred. A sample should be got
tested according to these standards. The schedule items for testing is given in the chapter
of Material Testing.
iii)
In no case any acidic base material shall be used as it helps corrosion process. Materials
shall be ALKALINE BASED

Clear meaning of the terms POLYMER, EPOXY, RUST REMOVER etc. must be
understood. E.g. all epoxys are polymers but a polymer may not be epoxy because
polymer is a Generic name based on the molecular structure of the material. Word
Epoxy is also a generic name. More than 300 (Three Hundred) various formulations of
epoxies are available.
Therefore, it is important to choose the construction chemical after studying various
technical aspects of the material.

CHAPTER 11 : GENERAL REPAIRS TO BUILDING WORKS
Chapter Notes:(i)
(ii)
This chapter is introduced for repair works only & shall not be used in any new construction work.
The documentation of repair/maintenance work shall be maintained meticulously. The following procedure
shall be adopted for recording the measurement of items included in these chapters:
(a) Sectional Engineer /Sr. Sectional Engineer shall open a numbered separate register called Zonal Petty
Repair/Maintenance Register (ZPRR) which shall be in the following format.
Division ____________
Section ______________ Sr. Section Engineer __________ Cont. Agt. No._________
(b) The above Zonal Petty Repair Register shall be maintained in two copies. One with Section Engineer and
the other copy with the Contractor. Occupants/users signature shall be obtained on contractors copy, as it
will be the responsibility of the contractor to obtain the signature in token of satisfactory work done.
(c) The measurements shall be recorded in the MB after completion of the work & the same shall be test
checked as per the extant instructions. However, the recorded measurement shall also be cross-checked with
the ZPRR.
(d) In case the occupant/user refuses to acknowledge the repairs, Section Engineer/Sr. Sectional Engineer in
addition to his usual inspection & certification of work will again satisfy himself about the quality & quantity
of the work and shall pass the remark I have personally inspected the work again in addition to my normal
inspection & satisfied myself with quantity and quality of work done in (name the work and location). The
complaint of the occupant is therefore not genuine & the measurement of the work is to be recorded without
occupant/users signature.
(iii)
As far as possible Sectional Engineer/Sr. Sectional Engineer shall club the repair works planned to be done in a
month and shall give the instructions through register once in a month, for facilitating execution of the work by
the contractor. However, it shall not be binding on the railways to do so and instructions as and when repairs
are required shall be given.
(iv)
This register shall be known as ZPRR (Zonal Petty Repair Register).
Rate includes :i)
