Critical Chloride Content in Reinforced Concrete: A Review

Durability of steel reinforced concrete in chloride environments: An overview

Corrosion is one of the most critical problems that impair the durability of RC structures. Both carbonation-induced and chloride-induced corrosion widely prevail in civil infrastructure around the globe. Expansive products are formed due to corrosion at the interface between concrete and reinforcing bar (rebar). The cracking and spalling in concrete due to expanding corrosion products and the reduction in the cross-sectional area of rebar jeopardize the safety and serviceability of RC structures. From an outsider perspective, this literature review summarizes the state of the art on the mechanisms of the two types of corrosion, mechanical degradation in RC structures as a result of these mechanisms, the analytical methods to predict the basic parameters most related to corrosion, and the available laboratory and field corrosion measurement techniques.
