Concrete foundations are not the only application of concrete walls. Concrete is commonly used to create barrier walls, retaining walls, and fences to name a few applications. Concrete in these structures can also crack from a variety of reasons and need repair to restore their structural integrity.

In this case study, a motor vehicle ran into the concrete structure and although a potion of one of the walls needed replacement, the side wall was repaired and its structural integrity restored.
