Abstract:Concrete structures in marine environments often face durability problems owing to the coupled action of external loads and chloride-ion erosion. Therefore, in this study, we conducted chloride ion tests on damaged concrete at four tensile stress levels and three varying number of load cycles. The test results indicate that an increase in the tensile stress and number of load cycles results in a gradual increase in the concrete damage coefficient. At fewer cycles, 50% tensile stress was the critical threshold … Show more
