Is aphaltic coating for substructures necessary?
(OP)
Why is it that pilecaps are coated but the piles themselves are not? Could it be:
1) piles are in compression, as such any cracks would be closed and the reinforcements are prevented from being corroded?
2) pilecaps uses lower strength concrete?
What must i do to prove that the asphaltic coating are not required on a particular pilecap?
