Signs of Advanced Rust in Stem Wall
When the rebar is fully oxidized and there are galvanized tie-down straps on the stem wall, concrete cracks start to appear in all directions. When installing NeveRust™, all the damaged concrete needs to get removed along with the oxidized parts of the rebar and the galvanized tie-down straps.
NeveRust™ System: Rebar Replacement
When the rebar and the tie-down straps get replaced, fresh cement is added onto the stem wall to seal and keep everything in place.
