This is a sub-selection from cement experts - does this look right?

sancraig join:2003-11-05 Saint Louis, MO	sancraig to nonymous Member 2012-Nov-11 5:57 pm to nonymous Re: cement experts - does this look right? Yes, if they poured an entire homes foundation, and this was the the only issue he should count himself lucky. Not to say he should accept this but there are much worse pours than that. Could of had a cold joint, could have been much worse. Hell seen worse on bridge abutments, guess what they did? They patched it. If it were my house I would rather them patch this 2'x2' area than cut it out and re-pour it with a seam. I think everybody is very optimistic thinking its all going to be re-poured cause of a 2x2 area. Op please let us know what becomes of this. Thanks

I think everybody is very optimistic thinking its all going to be re-poured cause of a 2x2 area. That area is the only big area... and the 'access portal' edges which is right near the bad corner... there is 1 pier that looks like this as well, I'll attach that here: Other than the corner and that pier it generally looks pretty good. Got any expert advise on how to seal up that re-bar? Some magic mix that will make it all good again?
