Multi-Scale Evaluation of the Interphase Zone between the Overlay and Concrete Substrate: Methods and Descriptors

This article presents the problem of examining the interphase zone between the overlay and concrete substrate at different levels of observation. The possibility of applying available modern research methods in order to examine the interphase zone with regard to the level of observation is presented. These levels were defined in the paper. Examples of tests that show a possible approach to the examination of the interphase zone are also presented.
