Why is My Concrete Cracked?
There are many reasons for cracked concrete, from temperature changes to errors in design and installation. Some problems become quickly apparent after installation, but some take years to develop. Read on to learn more about the causes of cracked concrete.
Temperature Changes
Warm or hot weather causes concrete to expand, and on cold days, it contracts. If your concrete cannot expand or contract, it will crack due to the tensile stress.
Shrinkage
One cause of cracked concrete is shrinkage, a change in the concrete’s volume over time. As the volume of concrete decreases and the surface cannot move freely, tensile stress occurs, resulting in cracks.
Excessive Weight
Concrete has load limits. Though concrete load limits are typically high, cracks can still form if the load limit is exceeded. Commercial properties are susceptible to damage due to heavy loads.
Design & Installation Errors
We frequently see this when someone uses too much water in concrete mixes for residential applications. While high water content allows for easier installation, it also causes weak concrete.
The NexusPro Solution
Thankfully, fixing cracks in concrete has never been easier, thanks to a breakthrough in technology only available from APS Foundation and other concrete repair contractors in the Supportworks network.
NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks specially formulated to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, which means it won’t crack, bubble or dry out. That means a single application can seal the joints and cracks in your concrete driveway, patio, pool deck or sidewalk for years to come, protecting it from damage caused by soil compaction and washout.
