Crack Diagnosis for Mumbai Buildings
Not every crack is dangerous, and not every innocent-looking crack is harmless. The difference lies in what caused it. Urban Civil Services diagnoses cracks at the source so that repairs treat the cause and not just the symptom.
How We Classify Cracks
- Structural cracks: wide, deep, or following reinforcement, threatening load capacity.
- Non-structural cracks: plaster, shrinkage and thermal cracks that are mostly cosmetic.
- Movement cracks: settlement, thermal expansion or nearby excavation.
Investigation Method
We document crack width, pattern, direction and location, then correlate them with NDT results and the structural layout. Cover, carbonation and half-cell tests tell us whether corrosion is the hidden driver beneath the visible crack.
Repair That Stays Fixed
Once the cause is known we recommend the correct remedy, from non-shrink grouting and stitching to jacketing or full member rehabilitation, with a clear specification and cost.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
No. Many are cosmetic plaster or shrinkage cracks. Diagnosis separates harmless cracks from structural ones.
We consider width, depth, direction, location relative to reinforcement and the results of non-destructive testing.
Yes, once the cause is identified. Treatment ranges from grouting and stitching to jacketing for severe cases.
A wide or rapidly widening crack should be inspected immediately, as it may indicate active movement or distress.
