| Abstract: | Repair and restoration of deteriorated structures is drawing lot of attention in recent years.
A variety of repair materials are available in the market. Therefore, testing, evaluation and
selection of a suitable repair material is very important. Various researchers use different
evaluation methods, whilst most of the material suppliers quote the property values, but the
test standard and method is not reported. It makes difficult to compare the repair materials.
Moreover, there is no required specification established so far. Recently research has been
carried out throughout the world to address this problem. The paper covers some important
parameters regarding the testing and evaluation of repair materials. The need of a unified
standard code and to select tests according to the applications is emphasised. Work carried
out at CBRI in this direction is also briefly discussed. |
