Concrete 1: Evaluation and Causes of Damage
When taking on a concrete repair project, the first step is an important one – conducting a thorough evaluation. This 1-hour interactive online course begins with techniques for surveying the condition of the concrete, and reviews design and construction documentation, operation and maintenance records, instrumentation data, visual examination, methods of nondestructive testing and laboratory specimen analysis. The second part of the course identifies basic causes of deterioration, and covers typical symptoms, and recommendations for preventing further damage. This course is the first in a series that provides guidance on evaluating the condition of the concrete in a structure.
