Concrete spalling, or concrete cancer, occurs when the steel reinforcement within a concrete structure begins to corrode. This corrosion causes the steal to expand and the surrounding concrete to displace and crack. If left untreated, concrete spalling can lead to serious structural deterioration, and a major safety hazard, resulting in extensive remedial works.
