Chloride ion diffusion coefficient is an important indicator reflected the concrete durability in chloride erosion environment, and affects the service life of concrete structure directly. By the indoor test of chloride acceleration permeability, the chloride ions diffusivity is studied in the tunnel lining structure, and the variation law of the chloride content is tested with the change of penetration depth of different age specimen. Tests shows, with the increases of the penetration depth, the chloride content decrease gradually and finally tend to the initial chloride content of the specimen. Penetration time has a strong cumulative effect on the internal concentration of chloride ions in concrete, the high or low level of chloride ion concentration have a role of promotion or reduction for the chloride ion penetration in the concrete inside. The results provide an important basis for the predictions of service life of tunnel lining in chloride erosion environment.

Improving concrete performance and minimizing corrosion-induced deterioration of reinforced concrete structures are mandated Building Codes Practices and Specifications in arid regions such as the Arabian Gulf. Concrete structures resist corrosion due to the passivating properties of the hydrated cement around the steel reinforcement created by the high alkaline environment within the composite structure (pH > 12). However, the presence of chloride ions in the pore structure of the concrete destroys this passivating layer, which makes the steel reinforcement vulnerable to chloride-induced corrosion attack that accelerates degradation and deterioration of concrete structures. Corrosion activities-related tests such as Time-to-Corrosion Initiation (Modified ASTM G-109)6, and Corrosion Rate Test (Lollipop Test), can be effectively used to monitor the behavior of corrosion development, while chloride ingress characteristics tests such as Electrical Indication of Concretes Ability to Resist Chloride Ion Penetration ASTM C-1202-91)7, and the Resistance of Concrete to Chloride Ion Penetration (AASHTO T 259-80)8, are applied to evaluate the rate at which chloride ions can diffuse through concrete to onset the time-to-corrosion initiation, which will impact the structure service life and compromise its sustainability. Efforts have been made by scientists to develop mathematical simulation models that predict the service life of the structure based on Ficks Second Law for semi-finite diffusion of chloride ions, concentrated at different concrete depths. The study concluded that mineral admixtures have contributed to the enhancement of concrete performance and its resistance to chloride diffusivity, as well when in combination with corrosion-inhibiting admixture such as calcium nitrite.

Considering the complexity of the chloride ion penetration in concrete exposed to marine environment, an integrated chloride penetration model coupled with temperature and moisture transfer is proposed. The governing equations and parameters embody fully the cross-impacts among thermal conduction, moisture transfer and chloride ion penetration. Furthermore, the four exposure conditions are classified based on the different contact with the aggressive marine environment, and then the micro-climate condition on the concrete surface is investigated according to the regional climate characteristics, therefore, a comprehensive analog simulation to the chloride penetration process is proposed. To demonstrate that the proposed numerical model can correctly simulate the chloride diffusion in concrete, the integrated chloride diffusion model is applied in reproducing a real experiment, finally the model gives good agreement with the experimental profiles, and it is proved the tidal zone exposure results in a more severe attack on the reinforcement
