Abstract

Hydrotechnical structures are constantly exposed to aggressive environmental factors, which lead to faster aging, wear and tear of concrete structures. During the entire period of use of the building and its structures, work related to the quality maintenance of their condition must be carried out. For this, technical maintenance of the building is carried out. This maintenance consists of many preventive and other measures that ensure the ability of the structure to be used as intended. One of the main measures is timely removal of defects and damage. After examining 30 water passages of the Moletai district municipality, the article presents the surface structural defects and damage identified by the visual instrumental method, analyzed their causes, summarized the results of concrete strength tests, determined by the non-destructive method (Šmidt's hammer).
