Field Performance of Epoxy-Coated Reinforcing Steel in Virginia Bridge Decks
The corrosion protection performance of epoxy-coated reinforcing steel (ECR) was evaluated in 18 concrete bridge decks in Virginia in 1997. The decks were 2 to 20 years old at the time of the investigation. The concrete bridge deck inspections included crack survey and cover depth determination in …

Corrosion Protection Service Life of Epoxy Coated Reinforcing Steel in Virginia Bridge Decks
… protection service life extension provided by epoxy-coated reinforcement (ECR) was determined by comparing ECR and bare bar from 10 bridge decks built between 1981 and 1995. The objective was to determine the corrosion protection service life time extension provided by ECR field specimens with …

Parameters Influencing the Corrosion Protection Service Life of Epoxy Coated Reinforcing Steel in Virginia Bridge Decks
This study is an evaluation of epoxy coated reinforcing steel (ECR) and its ability to effectively provide corrosion protection in reinforced concrete highway bridge decks. An analysis was conducted on 10 bridge decks built in the state of Virginia between the years 1981 and 1995. A total of 141 …

Performance Evaluation of Epoxy-Coated Reinforcing Steel and Corrosion Inhibitors in a Simulated Concrete Pore Water Solution
Three epoxy-coated reinforcing steel (ECR) types removed from job sites, one shipped directly from the coater's plant, three commercial corrosion inhibitors, and one ECR plus a corrosion inhibitor were evaluated as reinforcing steel corrosion protection systems against chloride induced corrosion. …

Subsidence Cracking of Concrete Over Steel Reinforcement Bar in Bridge Decks
… may cause chloride-induced corrosion of the reinforcing steel resulting in spalling of the cover concrete. Concrete specimens with 16 mm (# 5) diameter bars were cast with various cover depths, bar spacing and two concrete mixture types to determine the influence that epoxy coated …

Environmental Influence on the Bond Between a Polymer Concrete Overlay and an Aluminum Substrate
Chloride ion induced corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete bridge decks has become a major problem in the United States. Latex modified concrete (LMC), low slump dense concrete (LSDC) and hot-mix asphalt membranes (HMAM) overlays are currently some of the most used rehabilitation methods. …

Corrosion Testing and Modeling of Chloride-Induced Corrosion Deterioration of Concrete Bridge Decks
… samples. The Virginia bridge deck was built with epoxy-coated reinforcement as top reinforcement mat and black bar as the bottom mat. The Florida bridge is a segmental prestressed box girder structure built with black bar. The New Jersey bridge deck was overlaid with latex modified concrete. The …

Sensitivity of Half-Cell Potential Measurements to Properties of Concrete Bridge Decks
… method for assessing the corrosion potential of reinforcing steel in concrete bridge decks. The technique is particularly useful because it can be utilized to evaluate the probability of corrosion before damage is evident at the surface of a bridge deck. The specific objective of this research …
