In addition to environmental factors caused by the destruction of concrete structure , the concrete itself , some physical and chemical factors , may also cause serious damage to the concrete structureresultingin concrete failure

reinforcing rods oxidising due to the flawed nature of the original build where misplaced reinforcements had allowed water to penetrate(passive) caused bysevere concrete failure
many factors such as oxidisation of the reinforcing steel ... the reinforcing steel being too close to the surface of the concrete which again causes oxidisation freeze thaw action and chemical reaction to name(passive) can be caused byConcrete failure
any iron oxide present in the hardened concrete ... sulfates to form ettringite - like crystals with volume expansion resulting in internal stresses in the concreteleadto concrete failure
When this cementitious mixture is used to produce a hardened concrete , and the concrete is exposed to a sulfate environment , the hardened concrete is substantially free of the formation of volume - expanding compositions , such as ettringitecauseconcrete failure
