Industrial foundation repair, operating temperature 800 degree f

by Gary
(Ridgefield, WA USA)

I have been asked to recommend a foundation repair for an exchanger in a refinery, the temperature at the foundation is 800 degrees f. Based on the photos I have seen the concrete is spalling off on the outside face of the foundation. What is the best solution to fix this problem?

Thank you.

A. Concrete repairs at such a high temperature are difficult. You can try a product from 5 STAR PRODUCTS called HTR. It is designed for high temperature concrete repairs. Try contacting them directly for more specific information
