Abstract
Generally, there is no building construction with zero cracks. It’s a very common and
unavoidable problem in any concrete construction structure. Cracks affect structural safety as well as the
beautiful and artistic appearance of any construction. Everyone wishes their construction or building to be
crack free, but it is not an easy task or almost impossible. Various types of cracks start to appear on the nonstructural and structural part of any construction. These cracks are the result of some unwanted or faulty steps taken during construction. Sometimes, cracks can be a serious concern about the safety of any construction. Cracks do not risk the safety directly, but they encourage some acts which cause major safety problems. Therefore, it is very important to detect cracks before they create any serious safety issue and take preventive measures. However, cracks cannot be completely prevented, but can be controlled by using adequate materials and techniques. The present paper analyses reasons of cracks formation and provides some techniques and measures that can prevent cracks and related issues.
