Maintenance and repair of concrete structures — Part 2: Assessment of existing concrete structures
This document describes general requirements and procedures for the assessment of concrete structures. The assessment can be initiated under the following circumstances, but not limited to: a) an anticipated change in use or extension of design service life; b) structural deterioration due to time-dependent actions such as corrosion of reinforcement, fatigue, etc.; c) safety and/or serviceability check (e.g. for earthquake and increased traffic actions) as required by authorities, insurance companies, owners, etc.; d) structural damage by accidental actions (see ISO 2394). This document does not cover — qualification of personnel; — contractual matters; — health and safety requirements for the protection of workers during the investigation and testing.
ISO 16311-2:2024 - "Maintenance and repair of concrete structures - Part 2: Assessment of existing concrete structures" - defines a structured, repeatable process for assessing the condition and structural performance of existing concrete works. The standard covers the full assessment cycle: planning, site and laboratory investigation, evaluation and verification, prediction of future behaviour, recommendations and reporting. It is the second edition (2024) and updates the 2014 edition (notably by adding prediction as a formal clause).
Note: the standard does not cover qualification of personnel, contractual matters, or worker health & safety requirements.
ISO 16311-2 is used whenever an assessment of an existing concrete structure is required, including:
