element<br />
• Discoloured surface of a concrete element<br />
209 Insufficient/damaged cover of<br />
concrete element<br />
• Less cover than designed <strong>for</strong><br />
210 Weathering of concrete elem. • Normal wear and tear<br />
211 Honeycombing of concrete • Caused by <strong>for</strong> example, insufficient<br />
