METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RESTORING, REPAIRING, REINFORCING AND/OR PROTECTING STRUCTURES USING CONCRETE
A method for repairing an existing structure by covering at least a portion of the existing structure with a repair structure, the method comprising: mounting one or more standoff retainers to the existing structure, each standoff retainer comprising an elongated rod comprising one or more fastener-receiving features and one or more standoff-engaging curves wherein mounting the one or more standoff retainers to the existing structure comprises extending fasteners through the one or more fastener-receiving features and into the existing structure; coupling one or more standoffs to the one or more standoff retainers, such that the one or more standoffs extend away from the existing structure, wherein coupling the one or more standoffs to the one or more standoff retainers comprises extending the elongated rods of the one or more standoff retainers through apertures in the one or more standoffs and locating each of the one or more standoffs at a corresponding location of a corresponding one of the one or more standoff-engaging curves of the standoff retainers; coupling one or more panels to the one or more standoffs such that the panels are spaced apart from the existing structure to provide a space between the panels and the existing structure; and introducing a curable material to the space between the panels and the existing structure, the panels constrained from moving outwardly relative to the existing structure by the coupling of the panels to the standoffs, the coupling of the standoffs to the standoff retainers and the mounting of the standoff retainers to the existing structure, and the panels acting as at least a portion of a formwork for containing the curable material until the curable material cures to provide a repair structure cladded, at least in part, by the panels.
