25、mage to thecoating within each fabricated area of the reinforcing bar shallbe repaired. All disbonded areas of coating shall be removed,cleaned and repaired. The cleaning shall remove loose ordeleterious material, or both. In cases where rust is present, therust shall be removed by a thorough cleani

26、ng prior to the repair.This cleaning shall be done by blast cleaning, filing, powerbrushing or other method recommended by the patchingmaterial manufacturer and approved by the purchaser in amanner that minimizes damage to the sound coating.7.1.3 When coated bars are sheared, saw-cut or cut by other

27、means during the fabrication process, the cut ends shall bepatched.7.1.4 The repairs shall be performed as soon as possible andbefore visible oxidation appears on the steel surface and priorto shipment to the jobsite.7.1.5 The fabricator shall be responsible for repair to thecoating due to damage du

28、ring fabrication and handling at thefabricators facility.7.2 Repair of Damage Incurred During Shipment and Han-dling at the Jobsite:7.2.1 Coating damage, visible to a person with normal orcorrected vision, incurred during shipment, storage or place-ment of epoxy-coated bars at the jobsite shall be r

29、epaired withpatching material meeting the requirements of 3.1.7.2.2 The contractor shall be responsible for repair to thecoating due to damage during shipment, storage, or placementat the jobsite.7.2.3 The patching shall be performed in accordance withthe written recommendations of the patching mate

30、rial manu-facturer. The patching material shall be dry to the touch priorto concrete placement.7.3 The total damaged surface area (prior to repair withpatching material), shall not exceed 2 % in any given 0.3 m 1ft section of coated reinforcement. The total bar surface areacovered by patching materi

31、al shall not exceed 5 % in any given0.3 m 1 ft section of coated reinforcement. This limit ondamaged and repaired area shall not include sheared or cutends.8.
