Abstract
Polymer mortar is generally used for repairing concrete structures. However, its behavior in the setting characteristics has not fully been explored.
In this study, shrinkage strain and stress in the setting process of polymer mortoar with three kinds of resin were measured with an original test apparatus incorporating a non-contact type displacement meter and load cells.
Then, stress and deformation of two-layer composite beams composed of polymer mortar and ALC were investigated. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of energy at setting of polymer mortar, characteristics of polymer mortars used were discussed.
