Abstract: 
Repairs and protection are the important research inspirations of the sustainable development in construction. The role of polymers in this field is particularly interesting. Repairs of the concrete structures are complex and difficult technical task. The series of the European Standards EN 1504 is an attempt of the formal expression of the problem with respect to up-to-date status of the knowledge and technology. The polymers seem to be irreplaceable in concrete repairs and protection. The superior aim shall be obtaining, according to the rules of sustainable development—well defined performance polymer concretes. Implementation of the idea of the sustainable development into the construction, including use of polymers in the concrete repair, will be the source of scientific and engineering inspirations for many years.
