ACI 503.5R-92 (R2003) PDF Download
Standard EN SampleGuide for the Selection of Polymer Adhesives with Concrete
Also Known As:
ACI 503.5R-92 (R2003) is a comprehensive standard that aims to provide guidance to engineers, contractors, and architects in selecting the most suitable polymer adhesives for various applications involving concrete. The standard offers a detailed description of the different types of polymer adhesives that are commonly used for adhesive bonding of fresh concrete to cured concrete, repair of cracks in concrete, and bonding concrete to other materials.
The standard recognizes the importance of selecting the right adhesive to ensure successful and durable bonding. It outlines the factors that should be considered when selecting a polymer adhesive, including the properties of the concrete substrate, the specific application requirements, and the characteristics of the adhesive itself. The standard also emphasizes the need for compatibility between the adhesive and the concrete in terms of chemical composition, adhesion strength, and flexibility.
By providing this guidance, ACI 503.5R-92 (R2003) helps professionals in the construction industry make informed decisions when it comes to selecting polymer adhesives for concrete applications. It promotes the use of appropriate adhesives that will enhance the performance and longevity of concrete structures, ensuring safety and reliability in construction projects.
