CORROSION PROTECTION IN REINFORCED CONCRETE AND PRESTRESSED CONCRETE

PREVIOUS CORROSION INVESTIGATIONS ON STRUCTURES ARE REVIEWED AND THE FOLLOWING ARE DISCUSSED: PRINCIPLES OF CORROSION AND PROTECTION; DENSITY OF THE CONCRETE COVER WITH REGARD TO CORROSION; CARBONATION (WITH REFERENCE TO CONCRETE STRUCTURES UNDER WATER); RUSTING OF THE STEEL; REQUISITE THICKNESS OF COVER; EFFECT OF CRACKS UPON RUSTING OF THE STEEL; TYPICAL MISTAKES IN CONSTRUCTION (EXAMPLES OF BAD WORKMANSHIP, ETC. TENDING TO PROMOTE CORROSION OF REINFORCING STEEL); PARTICULAR FEATURES ASSOCIATED WITH PRESTRESSED CONCRETE; RULES FOR CORROSION PREVENTION. /LCPC/RRL/A/
