Rehabilitation of Marine Concrete Structure with Under-Water Hydrodemolition and Sprayed Concrete

摘要

Hydrodemolition is a method of surface preparation using high-pressure water jets. Hydrodemolition cutting depth is dependent on the length of time that the water jet is directed at the concrete surface that determines the depth of removal, and contact time is controlled at the robotic cutter. During hydrodemolition concrete removal, the cement matrix is removed from the aggregate. This paper describe on the test results of under-water hydrodemolition which was done on a prefabricated concrete basin. A very simple and economic method for repairing the damaged concrete structures is a using a sprayed concrete, which is some times called as shotcrete. This paper, also, describe on the test results of sprayed concrete for the rehabilitation of marine concrete structure.
