Epoxy resins have been used for grouting cracks in concrete, open joints in masonry, and construction gaps in structures for strengthening. These synthetic adhesive materials require a special technique for grouting. Many of the grouting failures can be related to failing to set minimum crack width...
It has been shown that injecting cracks with an epoxy resin that contains a fluorescent dye can enhance the visibility of cracks. Using fluorescence microscopy, one can use a filter to block the excitation light; light emitted by the fluorescing dye from within the cracks is the primary source...
brick or other porous masonry materials. The thinness of the epoxy can be a complicating factor: It's nice for filling small cracks, but if a crack runs all the way through a wall or slab, the epoxy can too. If there's access to both sides of a wall you can seal over the crack ...
steel fibers diminished the micro-cracks by interconnecting each other and enriching the microstructural characteristics of the concrete. Consequently, the steel fibers in the high-strength concrete significantly reduced the water absorption capability; contrastingly, the date palm and polypropylene fibrous co...

Concrete beams with simulated cracks were epoxy-injected, using three commercially available epoxy compounds. The repaired beams were then exposed to a heat-cool cyclic regime. These beams were tested in flexure, where the epoxy concrete interface was subjected to tensile stresses. In addition, concr...
Under various engineering applications in different loading modes, materials can be subjected to tensile-shear deformations, resulting in catastrophic-sudden fractures caused by cracks; to prevent this, it is essential to assess and predict the onset and behavior of cracks using the framework of fractu...
and the concrete, effectively stitching the cracks together. This technique repairs existing damage and strengthens the overall structure, reducing the likelihood of future cracks. At Concrete Repairman LLC, we ensure that our epoxy crack stitching services meet the highest quality and durability ...
However, since concrete stains create an invisible film on the top, they don’t hide the cracks and damage to the surface below. The flooring needs to be ground, smoothed, and cleaned to ensure the stain is flawless too. In epoxy, there is no need to treat the concrete floor first. It...
