Traditionally, reinforced concrete has been considered as a highly durable structural material requiring little or no maintenance over many decades. In fact, it is this, together with its versatility, that makes concrete the most popular structural material in many parts of the world. But, like any other material, concrete is not completely inert to chemical action or immune from physical deterioration arising from climatic changes, abrasion, damage from high velocity water, fire, impact, explosion, foundation failure or overloading.
