Salt crystallisation refers to the process of salt molecules combining to form a solid structure. This is done by the gradual addition of salt molecules to a solution until the solubility of the salt is exceeded. The salt molecules then begin to come together, forming a crystal lattice structure. The process of salt crystallisation is usually slow, but can be sped up with the addition of a seed crystal.

Left unchecked, it can spread and cause significant structural damage.
