In this study, the bond shear strength and corrosion resistance of concrete with setting retarders were evaluated. For this, slant shear, bi-surface, and accelerated corrosion tests were conducted. The variables considered included the proportion of the setting retarder (0 and 1%), surface treatments of concrete (as-cast, chipping, and brushing), curing hours (8, 16, and 24 h), and concrete cover depths (20, 30, and 45 mm). Consequently, the bond shear strength of concrete with the retarder showed a higher value than that of normal concrete. Moreover, an increase in curing hours resulted in a higher value of the bond shear strength. Furthermore, the addition of a retarder in concrete increased corrosion resistance. Based on the test results, the addition of a setting retarder is believed to be a suitable solution to address the bond shear strength and durability issues that may arise at the interface of delayed concrete placement.
