Structural Problems Found In Several Boston Parking Garages - BOSTON (WBZ)
WBZ went into a number of Boston garages and found exactly what worries Dr. Capano. We saw multiple examples of crumbling concrete, which was leaving the reinforced steel exposed and rusting. As he explained, 'You look for any exposed steel. That's really the telling sign that you may have a problem because salt can get right into it.'
What happens in this area is that cars get wet after driving on treated roads. They bring that salty water into the garages where it drips into cracks. The salt then eats away at the reinforced steel. Once that happens, the structural integrity can deteriorate quickly. Said Dr. Capano, 'That is when you have some complications.'------------------------------------------- posted 6:31 AM :: reference link ::
