Durability of reinforced concrete (RC) is influenced by cracks, providing paths for ingress of
corrosion agents and early corrosion initiation. The corrosion propagation stage has in …

When the amount of corrosion of reinfociment exceeds a certain limit, the cover concrete
cracks along the reinforcement. At this point of time it is believed that the structural properties …

This paper investigates the interplay between corrosion of reinforcement and corrosion-
induced cracking in reinforced concrete structures with non-uniform corrosion distribution …

It is widely known that corrosion is one of the main problems that reinforced concrete
structures may endure during their life‐cycle. This problem is usually tackled in a …

Reinforcement corrosion has been widely reported in the literature over the last two to three
decades. It is one of the major durability problems, mainly when the rebar in the concrete is …

For reinforced concrete structures subjected to chlorides, carbon dioxide laden and other
aggressive environments, corrosion of the reinforcing steel is seen as a global problem …

In this paper simple empirical models are suggested to evaluate the reduction in bond
strength as a function of reinforcement corrosion in reinforced concrete (RC). These models …

Corrosion-induced cracking is observed to vary spatially over concrete surfaces. A two-
dimensional spatial time-dependent reliability model is developed to predict the likelihood …

Crack width is a parameter of the most practical significance for the design and assessment
of reinforced concrete structures. Practical experience and observations suggest that …

The long-term corrosion process of reinforced concrete beams is studied in this paper. The
reinforced concrete elements were stored in a chloride environment for 17years under …
