Square cut the perimeter of the areas to be patched to a minimum depth of 1 inch or to inch into sound concrete whichever is deeper to prevent featheredges. Do not cut reinforcement. 2. Remove all delaminated and spalled concrete down to sound concrete. Where more than 50 percent of steel bar (circumference) is exposed, remove additional concrete to provide a minimum clearance beneath steel bar. Undercutting will provide clearance for under bar cleaning, full bar circumference bonding to surrounding concrete and will secure the patch structurally. Concrete removal shall extend along the bars to locations along the bar free of bond exhibiting corrosion and where bar is well bonded to surrounding concrete. 3. When unoxidized reinforcing steel is exposed during the undercutting process, special precautions shall be taken not to damage reinforcing steel and the reinforcing steels bond to surrounding concrete. If bond between the reinforcing steel and concrete is broken, undercutting of concrete to a depth of beneath the reinforcing steel and replacement with material will be required at the Contractors cost. Any steel damaged during undercutting shall be replaced at the Contractors cost. Any reinforcement that is loose shall be secured by approved methods. 4. Mechanically clean substrate to remove any surface contaminants such as grease, paint, oil, corrosion deposits, rust, dust laitance or other contaminants. 5. Mechanically clean all existing reinforcement, by sandblasting or shot blasting, to remove any corrosion, rust or other impurities from the exposed reinforcing. Coat all exposed steel with Sika Armatec 110 EpoCem, Emaco P24, or approved equivalent as per manufacturers recommendations. 6. For concrete substrate to receive patch material, apply bonding agent material per manufacturers recommendations. II.PATCHING MATERIAL All areas to be repaired shall be patched with an approved one or two component, polymer-modified, shrinkage compensated trowel grade mortar with corrosion inhibitor that has a coefficient of thermal expansion compatible with concrete and a minimum 28 day compressive strength of 5000 psi.
