Does a surface treatment change the psi (pounds per square inch) or strength of concrete? Why is this important in commercial and industrial settings?

A resinous floor topping will not change the compressive strength of the substrate to which it is applied. It can however increase physical properties like flexural strength, if the applied systems have greater flexural strength than the substrate.

It can change the effective pounds per square inch from 3500 psi (i.e., concrete) up to as much as 14,000 psi, based upon the type of coating system applied.
