Which risk escalates when thermal cycling acts on reinforced concrete?

💡 Explanation

Spalling risk increases due to differential thermal expansion between rebar and concrete. The mechanism of action-reaction stresses causes cracking, because internal stress overcomes the binding capacity; therefore, spalling results, rather than strength loss or cement oxidation.
