Spalling Concrete Repair
This job consisted of repairing small areas of the concrete that was breaking on a parking garage. The concrete started to spall off when the rebar starts to corrode causing an internal pressure that eventually breaks the concrete, if it is overhead it could fall on vehicles or people. Repairing spalled concrete requires chipping out the loose concrete around the rebar, cleaning the rust off the rebar, coating the rebar with anti-rusting paints, and then installing a repair mortar. If the area that is spalling is overhead we will use a special cement that has fibers to help keep it from falling during the repair.
