Fill in the blanks:

1. Underpinning is done to improve the strength of foundation

2. Polymer Impregnated Concrete is used to fill voids
3. Blanketing is similar to routing and sealing
4. The end regions of the cracks must be stitched less spacing
5. If the number of cracks is more, blanketing method is followed
6. In autogenous healing, the formation of CaCO3 and Ca(OH)2 crystals precipitate closes
the cracks
7. In prepacked aggregate concrete gap graded aggregates are used
8. Silicons are used as repair material for protective coating and sealant
9. In jacketing, shear keys are provided for bonding
10. The repair material used to bond the concrete surface and steel plate is epoxy
11. Plate bonding in the side of the beam will improve the shear strength
12. The fibres in FRP wrapping improves the strength and stiffness
13. Bond breakers is provided to prevent to allow the sealant to change shape, without a
concentration of stress on the bottom
14.In external stressing , tensile cracking can be counteracted by p r o v i d e d
tension rods
1 5 . Autogenous healing will work only in the absence of tensile stress
16. Dry packing is a method of placing zero slump mortar or concrete
17. Highly skilled nozzleman is required for dry mix shotcrete
18. Fibre formwork panels are used in repair of spalling in underwater structures
19. Less noble metals are used as sacrificial anodes
20. Calcium nitrate is an anodic inhibitor
