The things should you know about concrete cracks
Concrete is a composite mixture of construction material that is composed of cement,
aggregate and water.
The formulations used in the making of concrete make it relatively
high in the compressive strength and low or weaker in tensile strength.
Therefore, to
overcome this weakness of concrete (in tensile strength) it is reinforced with materials such
as steel (strong in tensile strength) is recommended while building concrete structures.
Concrete is being widely used in building various structures, such as dams, bridges,
motorways/roadways, reservoirs, pipes, footings and in a majority of structures.
Concrete
cracks are a common phenomenon and usually occurs because of shrinkage of concrete.
This shrinkage occurs due to the reducti
