Abstract:
Anyone who critically examines a large number of concrete structures in service will be struck with the fact that most of the deterioration found therein can be classified into a few general types. If, as seems reasonable to assume, similar defects have their genesis in similar causes, the study of a few typical cases of each should show the basic cause for that class and indicate how they could be prevented.
