Properties of Cementitious Repair Materials for Concrete Pavement

This review aims to provide an insight into concrete pavement repair materials by gathering the relevant research outcomes and specifications. It provides a systematic literature review that focuses on pavement repair and types of cementitious repair material. In general, conventional cementitious repair materials can be divided into 4 categories: ultra-rapid, rapid, accelerated, and normal strength gain. The mechanical and durability properties of conventional cementitious repair materials, i.e., calcium sulphoaluminate-based, calcium aluminate-based, polymer-modified concrete, and ordinary Portland cement-based repair materials are highlighted. The paper also discusses the newly developed ultra-high performance concrete and alkali-activated materials as potential repair materials for concrete pavement due to the good mechanical and durability performance. As a final point, this review may help readers to understand and determine the appropriate type of repair material when distress occurs in concrete pavement.
