Epoxy is commonly used when attaching reinforced concrete to the foundation of a home. Today in Eagle Mountain, we observed this process to ensure that all practices were carried out properly. Holes were drilled into the foundation with a ⅝-inch diameter and a 6-inch depth to provide adequate space for the #4 rebar after the epoxy was injected. Once the holes were drilled, they were thoroughly cleaned before placing the epoxy and rebar inside. This process can take a little extra time, but it is well worth the effort to ensure the stability of the structure being attached to the home’s foundation. The epoxy and rebar were properly installed and left to cure on a sunny day. A job well done!
