Abstract
A comprehensive investigation is necessary to implement appropriate repairs that will effectively restore a parking structure. The primary purpose of the investigation is to determine the cause(s) for the accelerated or premature deterioration of the structure. The process requires documenting the symptoms of concrete deterioration, obtaining material samples for laboratory testing and evaluation of the field and laboratory data. In addition to determining the primary cause(s) of the deterioration, the investigation also helps to recognize adverse conditions that can impact the service life of the restored structure. Repair investigation is covered in Chapter 19.
