Zinc on Concrete
Zinc on Concrete
(OP)
from the title itself, i would like to ask if Zinc is bad for concrete?
While searching on this matter, ive seen a link where they telling that a zinc can crack a concrete, because of corrosion while another website is telling that a zinc is sprayed on a certain part of a bridge to metalized it
Please educate me on this matter

RE: Zinc on Concrete
Zinc can crack concrete when embedded in it because of its oxide expansion during the corrosion process. It doesn't always happen, but it can. It is usually a result of partially embedding galvanized steel parts in concrete.
RE: Zinc on Concrete
but how about if the zinc itself, together with concrete mixture became a part of infill to the masonry?
