This study entailed performance tests to confirm the bond performance of the proposed new repair material and the pressurization effect of the developed mechanical pressurizing equipment. The physical property changes of the new repair material were reviewed by varying the mixing ratio of high aluminate cement (HAC)-mixed mortar. Strength tests were performed according to the mixing ratios of polymer and silica fume to improve the bond performance. To improve water retention, the mixing ratios of the cellulose and nylon fibers were adjusted, and the change in water retention was measured. The proposed repair material mixing ratio yielded the best performance when pressure was applied to the repair surface. Comparing the existing repair materials and the new repair material prepared by adjusting the ratios of HAC-mixed mortar, cellulose fiber, redispersible powder resin, and other factors confirmed that the new repair material has a high bond strength.
