Concrete - Identifying Types of Material Deterioration

 

Learn easy ways to avoid damage.

If you handle concrete distress and deterioration, there are six common deterioration issues that you will deal with. Our speaker dives into finish-related delamination, corrosion of reinforcement, freeze and thaw deterioration, alkali-silica reactivity, slab cracking and curling, and while it may be the lowest of the most common issues, sulfate deterioration happens often enough to come across concrete professional’s desk on a regular basis. 

Runtime: 26 minutes
