Plastic Shrinkage Cracking • Evaluation and Repair
ACI 224. 1 R-93 Causes, Evaluation and Repair of Cracks in Concrete Structures
ACI 224. 1 R-93 Chapter 1 – Causes & Control Chapter 2 – Evaluation Chapter 3 – Methods of Crack Repair
ACI 224. 1 R-93 Typical Plastic Shrinkage Cracking. (Price 1982)
ACI 224. 1 R-93 Chapter 1, Section 1. 2 “Cracking of Plastic Concrete” Discusses Causes and Prevention ONLY!
ACI CP-10 -Certification for Concrete Technicians and Flatwork Finishers- Discusses Causes and Prevention ONLY!
NRMCA Concrete in Practice “If plastic shrinkage cracks should appear during final finishing, the finisher may be able to close them by refinishing. ”
NRMCA Concrete in Practice Disclaimer “However, when this occurs, precautions, as described above, should be taken to avoid further cracking”
PCA EB 001 Design & Control of concrete Mixtures “If plastic shrinkage cracks should appear during finishing, striking each side of the crack with a float and refinishing can close the crack”
PCA EB 001 Design & Control of concrete Mixtures Disclaimer “However, the cracking may reoccur unless the causes are corrected”
ACI 305 R Hot Weather Concreting Section 4. 3. 4 In relatively massive placements, revibration before floating can sometimes close this type of cracking.

ACI 224 Chapter 3 Methods of Crack Repair in Hardened Concrete
ACI 224 Chapter 3 3. 2 Epoxy injection - Bonds cracks as narrow as 0. 002 in. - Provides fixity - Original cause must be addressed - Typically deferred to specialist
ACI 503. 7 -07 • Specification for Crack Repair by Epoxy Injection
ACI 224 Chapter 3 3. 3 Routing and sealing - Clean cracks - Enlarge crack along exposed face - Fill and seal with suitable joint sealant - Not suitable for structural repairs
ACI 224. 1 R-93 Groove cut wlth saw or chipping tools 7 Fig. 3. 1 -Repair of crack by muting and sealing (Johnson 1965)
ACI 224. 1 R-93 • If large enough, treat as an induced crack • Sawcut and fill
ACI 224. 1 R-93 Chapter 3 Crack Closed No Bond Breaker With Bond Breaker Fig. 3. 2 -Effect of bond breaker See ACI 504 R Re. Aspect Ratio
ACI 224 Chapter 3 3. 11 Polymer Impregnation • Methyl Methacrylate – Flood surfaces – Heat to polymerize, or – Use a catalyst to polymerize
ACI 224 Chapter 3 3. 12. 1 Surface Treatments - Low viscosity penetrating resins - Urethanes - Epoxies - Polyesters - Acrylics
