A draft output from the UKRI RAAC Impact Programme, led by the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC). It has been written by multiple authors, documenting the Research and
Development conducted from a selection of the programme’s key work packages. This draft is not authoritative industry guidance but aims to collate publicly available guides for RAAC in section 1 and document the research from the programme’s work packages, including the research methodologies, conclusions and next steps in section 2.
This draft document is not statutory or industry
best practice, it is based on the work of the MTC
and does not represent the full extent of knowledge
on RAAC within the UK. The MTC is a Research and
Technology Organisation (RTO) and not a structural
or civil engineering organisation. The information
contained within this draft document is an
independent view of the ongoing situation and history
of RAAC.
Includes illustrations, the history of RAAC, identifying RAAC, the challenges, testing methods and assessments and remediations
