Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

Corrosion of steel reinforced concrete (RC) is one of the major deterioration mechanisms causing economic and social losses [1]. The rate of corrosion depends strongly on the location of the structure. The major deterioration problems of RC structures are chloride-induced corrosion; sulfate-induced corrosion and carbonation. Another trigger of corrosion in RC is stray current [2].
