Spalling, where concrete flakes or crumbles, usually results from freeze-thaw cycles or exposure to de-icing chemicals. Water enters small pores, freezes, and expands, causing surface layers to break off. Cracking can occur from shrinkage during curing, temperature changes, or insufficient reinforcement. Structural cracking, caused by heavy loads or shifting ground, compromises integrity if left unchecked. Preventing these issues involves proper curing, sealing, and using quality reinforcement like rebar or fibers. Regular maintenance and choosing concrete mixes suited to the environment can mitigate spalling and cracking, extending the lifespan of concrete surfaces.
