Mr. Seegebrecht has worked in the construction industry for over 40 years.
For the past 35 years, he has been conducting troubleshooting of concrete and shotcrete problems. Problems vary on each project and frequently are a combination of issues. Common concrete problems include: low strength, uncontrolled cracking, air content irregularities. Investigations frequently include examination of fire damage to concrete building elements, spalling, scaling, honeycombing, delamination, debonding and other forms of distress or loss of durability.
Past projects involved evaluation of design, materials and workmanship issues for various structures including: swimming pools and pool decks, commercial and residential slabs-on-ground, aviation pavements, elevated decks, parking structures, chimneys and many other structures. Consulting on construction issues may include providing input on concrete mixture design, appropriate testing, placing, finishing and curing. George has also provided litigation support to Owners and Contractors on a number of issues of concrete construction, concrete defects, loss of durability and other issues. Past troubleshooting clients have avoided problems on subsequent projects by discussing potentially problematic specifications requirements before bidding or construction.
