EP #043 - Concrete Antibiotic

On a concrete restoration project, how do you make sure the repairs made address the underlying issue that caused the damaged concrete in the first place? Typically, you would chip out the spalling concrete, clean it and patch it back. But how do you make sure the root cause of the deteriorating concrete is eliminated? Hydrogel, a concrete restoration technology, is one solution that seeks to isolate the impurities that reduce concrete's greatest attribute - longevity. Jon Belkowitz with Edyston joins the show to explain what is hydrogel, the chemistry behind the technology, and how we can apply it to our deteriorating infrastructure today. Thank you to our loyal listeners for supporting the show!
