Abstract:
Lack of a scientific design approach for repair and rehabilitation of corroding reinforced concrete infrastructure has resulted in significant financial and social costs. This experimental program was primarily undertaken to examine the corrosion process in reinforced concrete repair, which has different characteristics as compared with corrosion in new construction. The program was designed to gain a deeper understanding of how certain restoration strategies may lead to problems of electrochemical incompatibility and result in ineffective corrosion mitigation.<br>Fifteen specimens, 1m

This work is concerned with the corrosion fatigue characteristics of full-scale reinforced concrete beams partially submerged in 3.5% NaCl solution or in tapwater of low dissolved salt content.

The test programme had two stages: Stage I, carried out at relatively high load levels, represented a study of the fatigue-failure phenomenon but also provided guides for the more detailed study undertaken in Stage II which was devoted to low lo

Abstract:
Premature deterioration of reinforced/prestressed concrete structures due to corrosion is of considerable current concern. One detrimental effect of corrosion of reinforcing/prestressing steel is the reduction of bond between steel and concrete due to the development of corrosion products at the interface. This thesis examines the influence of localized corrosion of reinforcing bars/ untensioned prestressing strands on their bond strength in concrete. In addition, an analytical study is conducted in order to investigate the complex behaviour due to cracking of cover concrete, non-uniform corro

Abstract:
Steel corrosion is one of the major distress mechanisms that causes the deterioration of reinforced concrete structures around the world. It is an electrochemical reaction between the reinforcing steel and the surrounding concrete that produces a mass loss of the metal. Through the process of corrosion in reinforced concrete, iron ions get oxidized to form corrosion products (CP). Although multiple experiments and studies have been developed to understand the rheological behavior of corrosion products, this topic stays inconclusive.

The durability of concrete structures is affected by a number of factors such as environmental exposure, electrochemical reactions, mechanical loading, impact damage and others. Of all of these, corrosion of the reinforcement is probably the main cause for the deterioration of steel reinforced concrete (RC) structures.

The main objective of this research is to establish durability design models for flexural concrete elements subjected to a given aggressive environment.

Abstract: Concrete cover cracking due to reinforcement corrosion is widely accepted as a limit-state indicator in defining the end of functional service life for existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures undergoing corrosion.

Therefore, the need to incorporate the length of the corrosion propagation stage in a comprehensive durability prediction approach has recently received much research attention. Pr
