Cracks in concrete
Have a concrete ramp about 900 X 750 x120

There are some cracks in it about 2mm wide.

What is best way of sealing the cracks before winter time and risk of ice cracking the ramp completely.

You could use something like this.

We use a Resin that's designed for anchor bolts. Currently holding my chimneys on at home too. Very good stuff

Resin anchor. OK have never used it. Have a couple of 'ground' anchors for the roller shutter door which will be going into newish 3 months concrete. Now the 'ground' anchor part is powder coated tube about 50-60 mm diameter. Would resin fix to powder coating. Also how much bigger should the hole in the concrete be?

So now trying to sort out two issues at the same time.

You don't have to use a resin fix. I find a 'throughbolt' better.

If you use an M12 through bolt. You drive 12mm diameter.

If you use threaded bar (M12) with resin, drill a 14 dia hole.
