DETERMINATION OF MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF REPAIR MORTARS USING IN SITU METHODS UNDER DIFFERENT CURINGS



Ali Saberi Varzaneh, Mahmoud Naderi

Considering the differences between environmental conditions of concrete structures and laboratory conditions, it is important to determine the parameters of the materials at the site of the structure. One of these materials is cement-based repair mortars due to the damage of concrete structures that may arise due to chemical or physical factors, these structures are required to be repaired. For this reason, in this paper, to determine the strength of repair mortars of different ages and under different Curing, Situ methods “Friction-Transfer” and “Pull-off” were used and the relationships between the Flexural Compressive, Tensile and readings obtained from the above methods on cementations mortars are presented. Experiments were performed on mortars at ages 3, 7, 28, 42 and 90 days under the conditions of “waterlogging”, “Curing Agent” and “releasing in the outdoor”. The results show the high impact of the process on the Flexural Compressive, Tensile of the repair mortars and the results of the “Friction-Transfer” and “Pull-off” methods. Also, a high correlation coefficient was obtained between the mechanical properties of the mortars and the results of the above tests; it is possible to measure the mechanical properties of repair mortars in situ with high confidence and in situ
