Description
Most minor concrete spalls are repaired using neat Type VIII epoxy (no sand) to help protect against deterioration caused by exposure to the water, chlorides, and other contaminants. Minor spalls are defined in Section 2.1 of this Manual.
Minor spalls can be built up using Type VIII epoxy mortar. Generally building up minor spalls with mortar provides no additional corrosion protection or capacity vs. neat epoxy only. Filling the voids removes the appearance of spalling and is typically done based on aesthetic concerns.
