CONCRETE CRACKING – WHO IS TO BLAME?

  • Submitted byChristopher Stanley, Technical Director | Unibeton Ready Mix
  • 8 years ago

“If a concrete is either cooled or dried, then provided it is free from restraint, it will reduce in length and no cracks will develop” “Cracks will not form unless there is some form of restraint” “Because it acts as a form of internal restraint, reinforcement governs the spacing and width of cracks in hardened concrete but reinforcement does not have the same effect in plastic concrete”
