Abstract: A procedure for providing an overlay on a concrete slab or similar subsurface including the steps of placing a plurality of anchor holes into the concrete slab to be repaired and/or providing an anchor channel at its periphery, providing a bed of fibers on the exposed surface of said concrete slab and extending into and filling said anchor holes and/or channel, infiltrating a flowable cement slurry throughout the fibers and into the anchor holes and/or anchor channel, and curing the slurry to form an overlay which has integral fiber-reinforced anchor portions extending into the slab.
