- Synopsis
- This paper outlines the revised contents of the JSCE Standard Specifications for Concrete Structures-Maintenance- published by Japan Society of Civil Engineers in 2018. Its contents basically adhere to those of the 2013 edition, but present stronger correlation to the Design and the Construction volumes of the JSCE Standard Specifications for Concrete Structures. This latest edition aims not only to reflect the latest developments of technology but also to make it easier to be used by the readers. To this end, it is divided into four parts, namely "Basics", "Standards", "Standard Annexes" and "Appendices". The "Standards" part is given the larger emphasis than before, and the "Standard Annexes" and "Appendices" have also been expanded significantly.
- Keywords:
- Coordination between design, construction and maintenance, understanding of actions, performance evaluation, steel corrosion with carbonation and water ingress, fatigue, PC grout
