CONCRETE STRUCTURE STRENGTHENED USING GRID REINFORCEMENT MATERIAL AND NON-SHRINK GROUT AND METHOD OF STRENGTHENING THE SAME
The present disclosure provides a concrete structure strengthened using a grid reinforcement material and non-shrink grout and a method of strengthening the same in which, when strengthening a concrete structure such as a concrete slab or a concrete wall body that is damaged or deteriorated, a grid reinforcement material is mounted on one side of the concrete structure, a formwork is formed on an outer side of the grid reinforcement material to have a required gap, and then the gap is filled with non-shrink grout so that the non-shrink grout is cured therein to strengthen the old concrete structure, thereby being able to automatically fill and repair cracks formed in the concrete structure just by injecting the non-shrink grout without separately performing crack repair on the old concrete structure. Also, the grid reinforcement material may be easily fixed or mounted using a grid fixing device and may be easily applied to strengthening of a concrete structure having a curved surface as well as a concrete structure having a flat surface such as a concrete slab or a concrete wall body. In addition, reinforcing bars may be additionally arranged in a gap between a surface of the concrete structure and the grid reinforcement material so that the grid reinforcement material increases a cover thickness, and thus the concrete structure is remarkably strengthened.

METHODS AND FORMULATIONS FOR SEALING STRUCTURAL LEAKS
A method of sealing a leaking crack in a structure involves drilling a delivery channel into the structure adjacent the crack and in towards the crack to join the crack. A delivery nozzle is inserted into the delivery channel to inject a sealant comprising latex and water under pressure into the crack. The sealant may be injected until the sealant forms a seepage on an exterior surface of the crack which is sprayed with a reactive agent to cure the sealant to form a skin. Thereafter further sealant may be injected via the delivery channel after the skin is formed to enhance the ingress of sealant within the crack.
Substrate seal test method and apparatus
A method for testing whether a sealing method is effective may include the steps of testing a flow characteristic of the substrate, sealing the substrate, re testing the flow characteristic of the substrate, then comparing the before and after flow characteristics of the substrate to determine whether the sealing step was effective or to quantify a sealing effectiveness to the sealing step.
