A Polished Concrete Floor - Start to Finish

A Polished Concrete Floor - Start to Finish
Available for download

A polished concrete floor project can be a very rewarding experience, as well as a tough lesson. Experience in the field and following certain guidelines can make a job much more rewarding and cost effective. Cutting corners or a misdiagnosis of the floor itself and/or environment can yield disastrous and costly results. In this article, we will walk you through the basic steps along with a complete overview of polished concrete. We will examine all steps, including environment, concrete diagnosis, grinding, densifying, polishing, color, and of course, maintenance.

(Concrete) Relevant Testing When Coating Concrete Tanks and Structure

Product Number: 37-COAT_DEC21
Author: John Sierzega
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

Inspection has always been a hot topic when it comes to coatings projects. There are some substrates that can be harder to specify due to not knowing without knowing which testing is relevant to specify and properly inspect the substrate and surface after it is coated. Concrete is probably the number one substrate that is confusing. This paper will dive into the testing that is relevant when specifying coatings for concrete tanks and structures. Whether it is how to properly check film build or whether or not an ASTM test is relevant, this paper will clear the waters and make specifying coatings for concrete tanks and structures easier.

Concrete Cracks: Causes, Correcting, and Coating

Product Number: 41205-214-SG
Author: Gail Winterbottom, Fred Goodwin
Publication Date: 2005
$20.00

Cracks in a concrete substrate pose a challenge for coatings. Cracks that are not properly identified and addressed can lead to premature failure of the coating.  This paper will discuss the forces that cause cracking in concrete structures, as well as crack types and repair techniques.
