Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation of corrosion effect on bond behavior between reinforcing bar and concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of corrosion and corrosion-induced cracks on the bond behavior between steel bars and concrete, and two series of pull-out tests were designed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Probabilistic prediction with Bayesian updating for strength degradation of RC bridge beams
TL;DR: In this article, a probabilistic prediction framework of corrosion-induced strength degradation for flexural beams is proposed, which considers both ductile and brittle failure modes of reinforcements and considers the area loss of steel bars considering the likelihood of corrosion types.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of cracks on chloride diffusivity in concrete: A five-phase mesoscale model approach
TL;DR: In this paper, a mesoscale numerical approach to investigate the chloride diffusivity in cracked concrete is presented, where the crack is located in the middle of the damaged zone (DZ), and there is a relationship of the chloride diffusion coefficients between the DZ and the crack.
Journal ArticleDOI
Probabilistic Life Prediction for Reinforced Concrete Structures Subjected to Seasonal Corrosion-Fatigue Damage
TL;DR: In this paper, a probabilistic life prediction framework for reinforced concrete (RC) structures is proposed, where the coupled effect of corrosion and fatigue deteriorates the performance of reinforced concrete structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Concrete cracking prediction under combined prestress and strand corrosion
TL;DR: In this article, strand corrosion-induced concrete cracking under various prestress experimentally and analytically was investigated and experimental data on the critical time of cover cracking, crack width and...
