Video Overview – Why Concrete Cracks and How to Build It Right
Concrete is one of the most durable materials you can use for a property, but only when it’s designed and installed correctly. In this DRYCO Educational Series video, Owner Daren Young walks through the fundamentals of concrete pavement performance: why concrete cracks, how joints work, how load affects lifespan, and when concrete is the right choice over asphalt.
Whether you’re managing a commercial property, industrial yard, or high-traffic facility, understanding how concrete is built helps you make better long-term decisions for your budget and your site.
