MEASURING RATE OF CORROSION OF STEEL IN FIELD CONCRETE STRUCTURES

Three-electrode linear polarization testing has become a valuable tool for measuring the corrosion rate of reinforcing steel in concrete. Discussion covers the test technique, procedures, and specially constructed portable equipment used to collect valid and useful data to help project future distress and its rate, and in defining the effectiveness of rehabilitations. Guidelines are presented for use in data interpretation.
