Project History
Seneca Falls was named after a group of canals that run
along side the Seneca River. Over the last decade, villages
along the canals have been restoring historic structures,
including the Arcade Building. The canal side concrete
columns and beams had been deteriorated for many years.
The contractor applied ECB, an anti-corrosion coating to
the cleaned reinforced steel followed by a long open time
bonding agent to the substrate. Multiple repair zones were
prepared then overbuilt using Conpro Set, an overhead and
vertical repair mortar. This was hand applied in several lifts
and shaved to the original profile. A finish coat was applied
to the entire surface for protection. The upper concrete
beams had severe damage and the decision was made
to encapsulate the substrate with Conpro One Coat,
a stucco base that combines the scratch and brown coat
in one application up to 1 - 2 inches thick, followed by a
cementitious stucco finish. Conpro Shield W was applied
to the entire structure to prevent water penetration. |
