Which structural failure occurs, within high humidity environments on magnesium hydroxide concrete due to hydrogen evolution?

💡 Explanation

Tensile cracking will result upon hydrogen formation during corrosion of embedded magnesium hydroxide, because the electrochemical potential generates hydrogen gas within the voids via the Volmer mechanism, building pressure and therefore initiating cracking rather than the standard corrosion of rebar in a standard concrete mix.
