Abstract:
This report outlines a successful and effective method for repairing water-leakage
cracks in concrete structures. The lack of adequate solutions for water-leakage
cracks usually leads to unnecessarily high repair prices, and this remains a
problem that requires constant attention. Unfortunately, despite the availability of
vast materials and techniques to repair these cracks, the problem still abides. This
may be due to the lack of understanding and insufficient knowledge of the
influencing factors, causes of the leakage cracks and the properties of the repair
materials and techniques. For repairs and remedies to be effective, it is essential
that the engineer should have a proper understanding of various causes of
occurrence of cracks. The report investigates the existing methods for curing
infrastructure cracks and bringing forward a hybrid solution to make it easier and
more convenient for the field technicians to detect and repair the water leakage
cracks in concrete structures.
