A contractor told me today that concrete has a service life of 80 years.
He said 40 years getting stronger and then 40 years of decline.
This seems odd to me.   I am looking at my dwelling that was built in
1908.  The concrete foundation does not look like it is deteriorating.
I recently cut a hole into the foundation and it was a b**ch.  
( difficult )

What sayest the august members of the PIClist ?

If true, can anything be done to extend the life of concrete ?

Best
Gus
