Corrosion Of Steel

The paper analyzes ways to ensure long service life (up to 50 years) of reinforced concrete marine structures. It has been established that durability and maintenance-free operation of floating and coastal offshore structures for 50 and more years depend on corrosion of steel reinforcement which could be avoided by applying electrochemical protection. The parameters of electrochemical protection against corrosion of steel fittings are given.

Corrosion Of Steel

Corrosion of steel bars has a serious influence on durability and safety of reinforced concrete structures, which should be effectively monitored for the maintenance of reinforced concrete structures. This paper reviews several main techniques firstly, and presents the ongoing work at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics to develop sensors to monitor the corrosion of reinforcement in concrete. It is hoped that the paper will be helpful to the field engineers and laboratory researchers who are monitoring and studying the corrosion of reinforcement in concrete structures.

Corrosion Of Steel

Section I of the monograph is devoted to an urgent problem - forecasting the durability of port reinforced concrete structures, the destruction of which is associated with corrosion of steel reinforcement caused by chloride aggression and carbonation of concrete. The analysis of models for calculating the service life of structures and experimental data is carried out, the life cycles for the main degradation processes in concrete and reinforcement, the periods of initiation and propagation of corrosion are considered, the influence of environmental factors (temperature, humidity) and the quality of concrete (In/C, cement consumption, diffusion coefficient) on the kinetics of chloride penetration and the movement of the carbonation front is taken into account. Probabilistic models of basic variables are considered, the limiting states of port reinforced concrete structures for the durability of reinforced concrete structures based on the reliability coefficient for service life are formulated. Sections II and III describe modern methods of restoration and restoration of reinforced concrete port structures subjected to corrosion destruction using nanofibrobeton. The concept of multilevel reinforcement has been implemented. Methods of experimental fracture mechanics were used to evaluate the joint work of exploited concrete and reinforcement nanofibre concrete. It is intended for scientific and engineering staff of universities, research and design organizations.

Corrosion of steel reinforcement embedded in concrete is one of the main causes of degradation of reinforced concrete structures. Degradation occurs in reinforced concrete structures from corrosion caused by the Chloride ingress into concrete. That degradation has a severe impact on the structure in terms of maintenance and rehabilitation costs. Therefore, early detection of reinforcement corrosion is important for efficient maintenance, repair and planning. Meanwhile, the evaluation of the corrosion of reinforcement by non-destructive measurements have been used a lot. In particular CM-II (corrosion meter) is used to measure the polarization resistance, but has some disadvantages. Embedded mini-sensor has been developed in order to overcome these disadvantages. In this study, measurement of corrosion by using the mini-sensor is compared with the measured results by CM-II to verify the validity of the newly developed mini senor. Results show that there are agreement in trends of the parameters measured and as such the developed mini sensor has a promising start to be used.

The monograph is devoted to the prediction of the longevity of reinforced concrete structures, the destruction of which is associated with corrosion of steel reinforcement caused by chloride aggression or concrete carbonation. On the basis of a comprehensive analysis of models for calculating the service life of structures and experimental data, preference is given to the mathematical model Dura Crete. Life cycles for the main degradation processes in concrete and reinforcement, periods of initiation and propagation of corrosion are considered. Particular attention is paid to the influence of environmental factors and the quality of concrete on the kinetics of chloride penetration and movement of the carbonization front. Formulated limit state design reinforced concrete durability in chloride attacks and carbonation. The basic provisions of the method of calculating the durability of reinforced concrete structures, based on the use of the reliability coefficient for the service life. The practical assessment of service life of reinforced concrete elements taking into account stochastic processes in concrete and reinforcement is made. Verification of the model reliability is performed. For all those interested in the issues of building materials and processes occurring in them.

As the progress of theory and computer technology, nonlinear analysis is widely applied in civil engineering. Strip method, as one of the numerical methods, is used widely especially in the analysis of beams, columns and shell structures. The first half of this paper introduces the theoretical model and the basic assumptions of the strip method; the latter half of this paper compiles the strip method into computer program using FORTRAN language. At last, using beams with rectangular cross-section of reinforced concrete structures as an example, the paper analyze the factors, such as the strength of the steel bars, which have an impact on the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete structures.

Corrosion Of Steel

Two types of steel reinforcement depassivation process: carbonation of concrete and chloride penetration are considered in the article. The comparison between the corrosion due to carbonation of concrete and the chloride-induced corrosion was carried out. It was found out, that chlorides induced corrosion is potentially more dangerous than that resulting from carbonation. Method of durable tests of reinforced concrete structures under the action of the gravitational load and the corrosive chloride environment is described in the article. The results of experimental research on reinforced concrete structures with corrosive damages to steel reinforcement are given in the article. The properties of corrosion cracking in the case of the pitting corrosion were determined. The character of corrosive damage distribution along the reinforcement bars and its effect on the strength of reinforced concrete beams were determined.
