Page 94 - ... 1. All concrete which is not water-proofed in some way is more or less porous to water and brine. 2. Brine readily softens the surface of concrete and, therefore, more easily penetrates to the reinforcements, on which it exerts a disintegrating action that, owing to the attendant expansion, gradually weakens the concrete, causing it to crack and split, and in some cases to fall away from the reinforcements. 3. The more porous the concrete, the more rapid the disintegration of the reinforcements...
