Concrete cancer in Hamilton, Queensland

Concrete Cancer Brisbane inspects and repairs concrete in Hamilton, where the typical buildings are riverfront apartments, converted industrial, and the written scope comes before any repair price.

Concrete cancer in Hamilton

Hamilton runs from riverfront apartment blocks through to converted industrial buildings near the port, and both ends of that range carry concrete cancer risk. The apartments have the usual balcony exposure with added river humidity; older industrial concrete can have thin cover and was not designed for a residential life. Conversions are worth particular attention, because a change of use does not always come with a durability assessment of the existing frame.

Hamilton site facts

What the Hamilton figures mean for the concrete

Hamilton's centre is 0.3 km from the Brisbane River, and three of the eight ring points fall on water. The bay is 8.7 km away, which is AS 3600's near-coastal band (class B1). So the river's humidity is likely to matter more than bay salt. For a converted industrial building, we measure cover depth and carbonation depth before the new use is designed, not after.
