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.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Discuss how to survey an existing concrete structure for damage and deterioration.
  • Describe the different causes of damage and identify the types and severity of deterioration.
  • Describe non-destructive testing methods, both above and below water.
  • Describe the tests performed during laboratory analysis of a concrete sample.
