Influence of Bridge Deck Concrete Parameters on the Reinforcing Steel Corrosion
Chloride induced corrosion of steel in concrete is one of the major forms of deterioration mechanisms found in reinforced concrete bridges. Early age corrosion damage reduces the lifespan of the bridges, which results in heavy economic losses. Research has been conducted to identify economic …

The influence of binder type and cracking on reinforcing steel corrosion in concrete
… are the level of chlorides required to initiate corrosion and the subsequent rate of penetration of chloride ions through concrete. The primary focus of the current work is the study of how cement extenders impact on the corrosion characteristics of embedded steel in concrete. The investigation …

Non-Destructive Bridge Deck Condition Assessment with a Probability-Based Deterioration Threshold
… types, e.g., cracking, delamination and reinforcing steel corrosion, have emerged. These techniques generate large amounts of data representing different underlying physics, (decibels for ground penetrating radar and volts for half-cell potential), making data interpretation and …

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. …

Crack Self-Healing in Alkali-Activated Materials: From Mechanisms to Strategies for Enhancing the Healing Efficiency
… Cracking-initiated deteriorations such as reinforcing steel corrosion, sulphate attack, and freeze-thaw damage, pose severe threats to the service life of concrete structures. Yet, sustainability is not readily achievable even if structures were made of environmentally friendly AAMs. …

Assessment of Commercial Corrosion Inhibiting Admixtures for Reinforced Concrete
Corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete exposed to chloride-laden environments is a well-known and documented phenomenon. The need for cost effective systems for protection against corrosion has become increasingly clear since the first observations of severe corrosion damage to interstate …
