EFFECT OF SURFACE TREATMENT OF CONCRETE ON REINFORCEMENT CORROSION

The research reported in this paper forms part of a collaborative project involving Aston University and a number of industrial and science-based partners, supported by the LINK Construction Maintenance and Refurbishment Programme. The aims of the project are to assess whether or not four commercially-available surface treatment systems are likely to be useful in extending the service-lives of concrete structures in which reinforcement corrosion has been initiated as a consequence of carbonation or chloride contamination and to determine whether their performance is affected by exposure to natural weathering.
