This study is focused on assessing the bond characteristics and corrosion behavior of
reinforcing bars embedded in copper slag concrete composites (CSCC). RILEM beams …

The sustainability concerns of concrete construction are focused both on the materials' eco-
efficiency and on the structures' durability. The present work focuses on the characterization …

Chloride-induced corrosion of carbon steel reinforcing bars is considered the primary cause
of deterioration of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Stainless steel rebars have gained …

In recent years, as a result of the large-scale use of stainless steel bars in production and
life, people's demand for stainless steel bars has increased. However, existing research …

Reinforced concrete is one of the most widely used materials in engineering construction
and reinforced concrete structures can be degraded by CO 2 in a humid environment. This …

To alleviate the detrimental effect of harsh environments on the durability of steel–concrete
composite structures, the use of stainless steel (SS) instead of conventional carbon steel …
