Appropriate operation and maintenance of concrete structures are essential to ensure the safety of the structure, and reducing risk. Concrete surfaces should be examined on a regular basis to identify spalling and deterioration due to weathering, or extreme stresses, or other physical, or chemical damage mechanisms.
Bridges
