This title is ideal for specialist contractors, consultants, and owners managing corrosion-damaged concrete structures, as well as postgraduate students seeking a thorough technical reference in engineering and materials science.

This looks at the process of steel corrosion in reinforced concrete, with its loss of durability and cost implications. Given the structure and chemistry of the steel and concrete, the process is more complex than is widely recognized. The latest research on the corrosion process and the electrochemical processes is critiqued.

Description

Some reinforced concrete structures prematurely corrode as they age, with significant financial implications, but it is not immediately clear why some are more durable than others. Electrochemical Processes and Corrosion in Reinforced Concrete looks at the various mechanisms for corrosion and how what seemed to be a relatively simple matter has become more complex the further it is understood due to the properties of concrete, steel and the way reinforced concrete structures are constructed. The significance of electrochemical processes is identified with recent research using new technology discussed.

Specialist contractors, consultants and owners of corrosion damaged structures will find this an extremely useful resource. It will also be a valuable reference for students at postgraduate level.
