Abstract:
The responsibilities for parties involved in a repair project may be significantly different than those traditionally encountered in new concrete construction. The new ACI 562 Code Requirements for Assessment, Repair, and Rehabilitation of Concrete Buildings and anticipated ACI 563 Specification identify requirements for the Licensed Design Professional and the contractors’ specialty engineer during repair programs. Differing lines of authority are presented through industry practice recommendations and case studies, along with identification of industry needs, informing parties engaged in concrete evaluation and repair projects.
