Abstract
Cement concrete is widely used in industrial plants, civil infrastructures, wastewater treatment plants and pipelines. Since acidic environments will accelerate the deterioration of concrete, various types of polymer coating materials are being used to protect the concrete surfaces. Hence there is a need for developing accelerated testing methods to evaluate the performance and durability of coated concrete under simulated field conditions. Several tests developed by the Center for Innovative Grouting Materials and Technology (CIGMAT) were used to evaluate the epoxy and polyurethane coated concrete. Also analytical models have been developed and used to predict the performance of the coated concrete.
