Have you noticed water staining on the concrete ceiling or water running down the outside walls of your parkade? While a concrete parkade concrete structure may seem solid and permanent, it may be susceptible to cracking. The reinforcing steel in concrete keeps it together, however if cracks in concrete are exposed, water will slowly work its way in and begin to corrode the rebar. The rebar will expand as it corrodes, causing spalling to take place. This will expose the rebar even further, accelerating the corrosion process and potentially causing further damage to the structure.

Waterproofing membrane failure or improper installation allows water and salts to seep into the concrete deteriorating over time leading to structural failure. Building Works works with the property owners, strata corporations, and management companies to provide a parkade structure condition assessments, and to provide any needed repair and restoration services. We will also develop a maintenance plan to avoid costly future failures.
