Abstract:This study aims to investigate the effect of lime addition in cement mortar on corrosion resistance of carbon and galvanized steel reinforcements. Mixed mortars were studied containing three contents of lime (6.7, 13.3, and 26.3 wt.%). The water retention, incorporated air, and compression strength of reinforced mortars were determined. Immersion tests were performed using the reinforced mortars consisting of 12 cycles of immersion in a solution of 3.5% (wt./v) sodium chloride and drying in a stove at 60oC. El… Show more
