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...

Page 94 - Reinforced concrete floors which come in contact with brine will gradually develop leaks. These will be followed by incrustations of discolored salt on the under side, where, later, iron-stained, hair cracks will develop running parallel to the reinforcements. As the deterioration progresses, the cracks will widen and, owing to the great expansive force of the accumulating iron oxide, the concrete will be gradually pushed from the corroded reinforcements and ultimately fall.
