Abstract

Understanding and reducing the corrosion of steel in concrete is of major importance to reducing the life-cycle costs of bridges, marine structures, parking structures, and other concrete structures in severe environments. Numerous protection methods have been developed and models are coming into use to aid in the decision as to which method or methods to employ in a corrosion protection system. At this time, one of the most cost effective approaches is the use of good quality, low permeability concrete containing corrosion inhibitors. In addition to improving corrosion performance, the overall performance of the concrete is improved with this approach.
