Description
Z7/06 provides up-to-date guidance on concrete cracking and the design for crack control for Australian structures, as well as the assessment, monitoring and repair of cracks. In addition to providing reliable design guidance on the control of cracking in new structures to ensure serviceability and durability, the advice provided will also assist designers to diagnose the cause of cracks in existing structures and, where appropriate, to specify effective remedial measures.
