Questions About the Silver Stream's Concrete Lining


  • At what rate does the concrete lining erode? 
  • Has it been replaced fully or partially over the course of the steam's existence?
  • What other streams provide examples for the performance of concrete linings over time?
  • What kind of concrete was used? What are its main components?
  • In what areas is the erosion greatest?
  • What are the environmental concerns with using concrete stream linings, if any?
  • Is it possible to distinguish the elemental compounds present in the steam's sediment that come from the concrete vs. other sources?
