The long-term behavior of concrete structures has shown that their main cause of distress is
reinforcement corrosion. One of the most punishing exposure conditions for concrete is a …

One of the most aggressive environments for reinforced concrete (RC) is a marine
environment such as that in the Persian Gulf region. In these conditions, reinforcement …

This paper discusses the chloride-induced corrosion of reinforcement in marine concrete
structures focusing on the variability in the progress of deterioration. Through tests and …

Chloride initiated reinforcement corrosion is the main durability problem for concrete
structures in a marine environment. If the chlorides reach the reinforcement steel, it will …

The presence of chloride ions in reinforced concrete (RC) plays a major role in
reinforcement corrosion and hence for the durability and service life of RC structures. With …

Chloride induced reinforcement corrosion in concrete is a serious durability problem.
Different sources of chloride, ie chloride introduced at the fresh stage of concrete (ie internal …

This paper presents the diagnostic investigation of a reinforced concrete jetty after 15 years
of service. The main cause of the deterioration was reinforcement corrosion, which initiated …

The degradation caused by corrosion of rebar in concrete structures is one of the most
important issues to attract the attention of researchers focused on concrete durability …

The present investigation has been aimed at to carry out the modelling of the indicators of
chloride-induced corrosion of the rebar in concrete under normal exposure at early age. The …

Corrosivity category of the atmosphere in coastal regions is usually very high. Reinforced
structures frequently show short service life if adequate measures are not applied …
