Sažetak
Coating concrete helps prevents absorption of contaminants. Concrete is porous and tends to absorb contaminants readily. This is very important in nuclear power plants and other places where radiation could be present. Coating concrete helps resist abrasion from both passer traffic and equipment traffic, and makes the concrete resistant to deterioration from the flow of water or other fluids across the surface. Concrete probably provides the largest surface area of all construction materials. While importance has been placed on metal as a surface for coatings, it is essential for inspectors to know and thoroughly understand concrete as both a substrate requiring a coating, and as a coating itself. Concrete is sometimes applied over steel to prevent corrosion. When concrete is dense and poured well, it will be one of the most corrosion - resistant coatings usable and accessible for steel surfaces. It provisions a thick, dense, water-resistant barrier, and creates an inhibitive atmosphere that obstructs steel from corroding.
