Thermal expansion and other conditions such as soil movement and erosion can impose stress on structural elements and failed utility joints that protect the structure from moisture. Exposure to moisture, freezing weather and de-icing chemicals will eventually cause corrosion to the internal reinforcement. Cracking and spalling occur when corrosion expands around the steel; the expansive force of corrosion begins to delaminate the cover concrete from the internal reinforcing steel. Delaminated and spalled concrete in a parking garage is a serious safety issue for occupants and their vehicles which imposes a significant liability risk to facility owners. A strategically prioritized yearly maintenance plan will reduce the risk of liability resulting from damaged concrete and significantly extend the life of the structure
