Modelling of reinforcement corrosion – Influence of concrete technology on corrosion development

Abstract

Abstract Reinforcement corrosion is influenced by different parameters like resistivity of concrete, setting conditions and also by concrete technology. Moreover the presence of cathodic areas and the possibility of unhampered cathodic reaction influences the reinforcement corrosion. In this paper the development of corrosion without large cathodic areas, called self‐corrosion, considering different concrete parameters, is studied.
