Deterioration Details
Pitting
Pitting in sidewalk occurs over time as individual stones break up through the freeze/thaw cycle leaving a void in the sidewalk surface. This type of deterioration in small amounts may not necessarily constitute a hazardous walking surface. In large quantities, however, these defects diminish the smooth walking surface, compromise the sidewalkâs structural integrity, and contribute to poor drainage which propagates further pitting and surface defects.
Scaling
Scaling is the general loss of surface mortar exposed to freezing and thawing. The aggregate is usually clearly exposed and often stands out from the concrete. Scaling is primarily a physical action caused by hydraulic pressure from water freezing within the concrete and not usually caused by chemical corrosive action. When pressure exceeds the tensile strength of concrete, scaling can result if entrained-air voids are not present to act as internal pressure relief valves.
