RC (Reinforced Concrete) structures undergo deterioration and the initiated corrosion in the
steel is considered as one of the most critical problems. For efficient construction of …

The stress due to volume change causes cracking in concrete, so that construction joint is
intentionally prepared for an efficient construction and crack controlling in mass concrete …

The effect of loading on chloride penetration into concrete is evaluated in this study. It is
found that the chloride penetration rates for OPC concrete and blast furnace slag BFS …

Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and OPC/ground granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS)
70%, with or without 5% sulfates, were widely investigated in respect to their pore structures …

The effect of ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS) and silica fume (SF) on the
chloride migration through concrete subjected to repeated loading was examined. Portland …

Innovative approaches are under research to study the resistance of chloride ion penetration
in concrete containing chloride ions, to minimize the impact of chloride ion penetration test …

Changes in the salt attack resistance of concrete using ground granulated blast furnace slag
(GGBFS) were examined based on different curing conditions. These conditions were …

Service life of reinforced concrete structures exposed to chloride ions is closely related to the
rate of chloride ion diffusion through the concrete. The determination of the apparent …

AESTRACT Chloride ion inside concrete destroys the so-called passive film surrounding
reinforcing bars inside concrete so that the so-called salt attack accelerates corrosion which …

Although the ingress of chloride into concrete is normally controlled by absorption and
diffusion mechanisms, external loads can affect this process by modifying the microstructure …
