HOW TO REPAIR CORROSION DAMAGE IN A CONCRETE FOUNDATION

This home foundation was suffering from corrosion. This happened because of dry-wet cycles, and because the rebar was not provided with enough concrete cover. In this case we have to remove all loose and broken concrete, clean the rebar and install new repair mortar.

I'm looking to repair some spalling on the side of my house foundation and this video covers exactly what I needed. Thank you!

[@AISmartHomesFund]

amazing video and quality!

[@dablet]

you forgot to share the corrosion inhibitor for us to buy. that's the most important material!

[@oliveraguirreconcreterepai4826]

Many brands. But I use Euclid or SIKA. Non of those for sale at the Home Improvement stores in the USA.

Nice job, nice video! I’m looking to fix my driveway but this was interesting too 😂

[@andyrivera255]

what rust inhibitor did you use?

[@oliveraguirreconcreterepai4826]

Euclid

[@richardnguyen9659]

Please let me know the name of Mortar Mix and Bonding Agent and how much water needed to mix them

[@oliveraguirreconcreterepai4826]

Mortar mix by rapid set cement. Corrosion inhibitor by Euclid. No bonding agent, this mortar has excelent bond. If you want you can apply an epoxy (not acrylic) bonding agent to bond the concrete layers, but it will be expensive.

Within 5 years these repairs will fail.

Why would it fail? What else can be done?

@@ericwelch5461 Once rust sets into metal, not much will stop it. It will keep expanding and popping the concrete off.

@@um1969 FRP rebar can be used, but the rebar cage has to be designed and it has to be a complete replacement. The hooks and bends in steel rebar are a key element in the design. If you don't incorporate them in the repair, the repair will be inadequate and cracks will form.
