- Abstract
The paper presents crack resistance problem of polymer and polymer-cement coatings used for surface protection of concrete structures. In a result of analysis of operating conditions of the arrangement elements: coating - concrete and loads assisting them in different situations but also anticipated results of their effects, evaluation criteria of crack resistance of protective polymer coatings and polymercement ones subject to the activity of short-term and long-term load were work out. On the basis of six coating materials there was made a research verification of crack resistance criteria and effects of mechanical short-term and long-term to crack resistance were defined. Tests carried out showed correctness of worked out criteria for crack resistance and proved their usage in designing protective coatings for concrete structures.
