Abstract
Patch repair materials made from unsaturated polyester resin (UPR)-mortar have been investigated to determine their bond strength characteristic by slant shear test method. The relative mechanical properties of UPR-mortar and substrate concrete for composing the specimens are: lower modular and high strength ratio. The experimental results show that the combination of materials causes the observed bond strength are dictated by failure of substrate concrete. The actual bond strength could be higher as most of the specimens fail without separation of the UPR-mortar and substrate concrete at the bond plane.
