| Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
| ACI | 2020 | 24 |
This document provides general guidance for determining appropriate acceptance criteria for a prepared surface to receive a protection system. There are many techniques for preparation of a surface prior to installation of a protection system, and no single method is ideal for all situations. This guide discusses various preparation methods that can be used to achieve the intended surface condition. Keywords: coatings; membranes; protection systems; surface preparation.
