Abstract:Chloride ingress and carbonation pose a significant risk of steel rebar corrosion in concrete structures. Various models exist to simulate the initiation phase of rebar corrosion, addressing both carbonation and chloride ingress mechanisms separately. These models also consider the environmental loads and material resistances, typically determined through laboratory testing based on specific standards. However, recent findings show significant differences between material resistances obtained from standardized… Show more
