| Résumé : |
Performing a planned condition assessment prior to installing a coating over concrete will extend the life of the coating system installed and, in turn, extend the structure’s service life, minimizing the need for expensive large-scale structural repairs — or possibly even catastrophic failures — of both the coating and the substrate.
Neglecting the need for a condition assessment of the existing coating and performing necessary repairs to the underlying concrete beforehand runs the risk of premature failure of the protective coating, which may result in premature deterioration of the underlying concrete. Prior to performing work, it is imperative that you, as the contractor, assess the condition of both the coating and the underlying concrete in order to adequately plan a successful and technically justifiable coating installation. |
