On the membrane side, you have what looks like a number of different styles to choose from (even if they are prone to failure) while crystalline admixtures are seen as all the same. So if you choose an admixture like that, it all just comes down to price then, right?While that is a common thought about crystallin...

Durability failures often stem from the use of substandard materials, improper mix designs, inadequate construction practices, and insufficient curing. These shortcomings can significantly reduce a concrete structure’s expected lifespan and performance....
