ABRASION RESISTANCE OF CONCRETE – DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND CASE STUDY

摘要: One of the most common forms deterioration imposed on concrete structures is surface abrasion. This mechanical wearing can be a catalyst for other such as cracking and corrosion reinforcing steel. report intended to discuss three aspects Firstly, sources mechanics abrasion have been identified. Secondly, literature review has presented identifying material construction methods that impact resistance concrete, including compressive strength, water cementitious materials ratio, type size aggregates, supplementary materials, chemical admixtures, curing finishing practices. Recommendations specifying designing mixes, well suggested practices improve are provided. Finally, case study ice shield design Confederation Bridge in Canada, longest bridge world over covered water, showcasing how engineers handled their designs.
