Abstract1: This Special Digest explains current guidance for assessing HAC concrete construction, taking account of developments since 1975. Recent information comes mostly from site investigations of structures; the findings have a bearing on how HAC construction should be appraised. This Digest also describes testing regimes to identify HACC and check for chemical attack. It assesses the current level of protection afforded to the reinforcement and gives advice on durability management, maintenance and refurbishment.
