Rehabilitation, Renovation, and Preservation of Concrete and Masonry Structures
Also Known As:
ACI SP-85:1985 is a standard that focuses on the rehabilitation, renovation, and preservation of concrete and masonry structures. The standard provides an overview of the essential steps involved in modifying old structures for new use, including the selection of materials and methods for repair. It also covers techniques specifically applicable to the restoration of concrete and masonry.
The standard is divided into several sections, each authored by experts in the field. These sections include topics such as nondestructive evaluation in rehabilitation and preservation, inspection, analysis, and restoration of specific structures (e.g., MIT Kresge Auditorium, a high-rise housing complex in Chicago, and the facade of the Woolworth Building), evaluation and innovative design procedures for masonry structures, improving building regulations for rehabilitation, verification of structural adequacy, repairs of concrete columns, spandrels, and balconies, and cathodic protection for reinforced concrete structures.
