Design Method for Corrosion of Reinforcing Bars in Concrete Structures by Water Penetration and Carbonation Progress

Last updated on 12 September 2025 3:22

The effect of water and carbonation on the corrosion of reinforcing bars in concrete was investigated by field surveys on members with different levels of supplied water. In addition, a design method to suppress corrosion of reinforcing bars due to water penetration was verified by comparing the cover depth where...
