The article presents the results of tests of epoxy resin coatings modified with the addition of waste glass powder. Pull-off strength tests were performed for ground and patch grabbed …
The paper presents the effectiveness of epoxy resin coatings modified with heavy fuel oil ash (HFOA) submicron/nano (S/N) carbon particles in enhancing concrete durability. HFOA …
In this paper a classification system of the anomalies in ceramic tiling applied to building façades and their most probable causes is proposed and a field data analysis is presented …

Based on a proposal for a classification system for anomalies and their probable causes in natural stone cladding (NSC) an inspection plan was developed for recent buildings with …
This paper describes a study conducted to evaluate the effect of texturing of the surface of concrete substrate on the pull-off strength (fb) of epoxy resin coating. The paper investigates …
Within building inspection, determining the urgency of repair depends on varying factors (eg risk, progression conditions and façade importance). This study analyses the urgency of …
