Concrete Cancer Repairs.

 

What is Concrete Cancer?

Damage occurs when the surface of the concrete is poorly finished and allows water to enter and seep through to the steel inside. The salt in the water causes the steel to rust, the steel then expands and eventually causes the concrete to pop or flake off; this is called Concrete Cancer.

Concrete Cancer is a worldwide problem and causes billions of dollars in losses to bridges and buildings every year. The term “Spall” means flakes or fragments that are ejected due to stress or impact. The detection, diagnosis and treatment of Concrete Cancer requires special expertise and immediate action to save the integrity of the structure.
