SYLLABUS

UNIT – I : Deterioration of concrete in structures: Physical processes of deterioration like Freezing and Thawing, Wetting and Drying, Abrasion, Erosion, Pitting, Chemical processes like Carbonation, Chloride ingress, Corrosion, Alkali aggregate reaction, Sulphate attack Acid attack, temperature and their causes, Mechanism, Effect, preventive measures. – Cracks:Cracks in concrete, type, pattern, quantification, measurement & preventive measures.

UNIT- II : Non Destructive Testing- Non destructive test methods for concrete including Rebound hammer, Ultrasonic pulse velocity, Rebar locator, Corrosion meter, Penetration resistance and Pull out test, Core cutting- Corrosion: Methods for corrosion measurement and assessment including half-cell potential and resistivity, Mapping of data.

UNIT-III : Failure of buildings: Definition of building failure-types of failures- Causes of Failures- Faulty Design, Accidental over Loading, Poor quality of material and Poor Construction practices- Fire damage – Methodology for investigation of failures-diagnostic testing methods and equipments-repair of cracks in concrete

UNIT-IV : Materials for repair and rehabilitation -Admixtures- types of admixtures- purposes of using admixtures- chemical composition- Natural admixtures- Fibres- wraps- Glass and Carbon fibre wraps- Steel Plates-Concrete behavior under corrosion, disintegrated mechanisms- moisture effects and thermal effects – Visual investigation- Acoustical emission methods- Corrosion activity measurement- chloride content – Depth of carbonation- Impact echo methods- Ultrasound pulse velocity methods- Pull out tests.
