This book was released on 2003 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Virginia Department of Transportation recently initiated a search for metallic reinforcing bars that are not only more durable and corrosion resistant than the epoxy-coated bars currently used, but also economical. In the last few years, several new bars have shown promise; one is still in the developmental stage. These bars are (1) stainless steel-clad carbon steel bars, (2) bars made of an MMFX-2 "microcomposite" steel, (3) bars made of a new "lean" duplex stainless steel called 2101 LDX, and (4) a carbon steel bar coated with a 2-mil layer of arc-sprayed zinc and then epoxy. These bars were embedded in concrete blocks, which were then subjected to severe weekly cycles of ponding with a saturated salt solution and drying. For comparison, two solid stainless steel (304 and 316LN) bars and a carbon steel bar (ASTM A 615) were also included. The times-to-corrosion of these bars were estimated through almost weekly monitoring of the macrocell current, open-circuit potential, and polarization resistance for up to 3 years. From a chloride concentration-vs.-time profile established for the test blocks, the amount of chloride ions each bar was able to tolerate was estimated and compared. Based on such information, an analysis of the long-term costs associated with the use of these bars in a bridge deck in Virginia was also conducted. This interim report was prepared to provide bridge engineers with this timely information. The information should be valuable in making a rational selection of the most cost-effective metallic reinforcing bars that will satisfy the specified design life for concrete bridge components that will be exposed to different degrees of salting.

Book Synopsis Application of Cathodic Prevention in a New Concrete Bridge Deck in Virginia by : Gerardo G. Clemeña
Download or read book Application of Cathodic Prevention in a New Concrete Bridge Deck in Virginia written by Gerardo G. Clemeña and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corrosion of reinforcement in concrete bridges has been a major factor in limiting the service life of many such structures. As part of a concerted effort to identify cost-effective options for eliminating corrosion of reinforcement, the application of cathodic prevention was tried in a recently constructed concrete bridge deck. The incorporation of an impressed-current cathodic prevention system in a new concrete bridge deck while it was being constructed was made possible by the use of titanium mesh ribbon anodes coated with mixed-metal oxide. The anodes were spaced 32 cm (13 in.) apart and transversely across the entire bridge deck to allow for the trouble-free placement of the concrete. The system has been operating for almost 2 years with no extraordinary problems. A comparison of the long-term cost of this option with those of other options, such as the use of corrosion-resistant clad bars or stainless steel bars, indicated that this option is not economically favorable.

Book Synopsis Corrosion of Steel in Concrete by : Luca Bertolini
Download or read book Corrosion of Steel in Concrete written by Luca Bertolini and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-02-26 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steel-reinforced concrete is used ubiquitously as a building material due to its unique combination of the high compressive strength of concrete and the high tensile strength of steel. Therefore, reinforced concrete is an ideal composite material that is used for a wide range of applications in structural engineering such as buildings, bridges, tunnels, harbor quays, foundations, tanks and pipes. To ensure durability of these structures, however, measures must be taken to prevent, diagnose and, if necessary, repair damage to the material especially due to corrosion of the steel reinforcement. The book examines the different aspects of corrosion of steel in concrete, starting from basic and essential mechanisms of the phenomenon, moving up to practical consequences for designers, contractors and owners both for new and existing reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. It covers general aspects of corrosion and protection of reinforcement, forms of attack in the presence of carbonation and chlorides, problems of hydrogen embrittlement as well as techniques of diagnosis, monitoring and repair. This second edition updates the contents with recent findings on the different topics considered and bibliographic references, with particular attention to recent European standards. This book is a self-contained treatment for civil and construction engineers, material scientists, advanced students and architects concerned with the design and maintenance of reinforced concrete structures. Readers will benefit from the knowledge, tools, and methods needed to understand corrosion in reinforced concrete and how to prevent it or keep it within acceptable limits.

Download or read book Model Code for Service Life Design written by fib Fédération internationale du béton and published by fib Fédération internationale du béton. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: fib Bulletin 34 addresses Service Life Design (SLD) for plain concrete, reinforced concrete and pre-stressed concrete structures, with a special focus on design provisions for managing the adverse effects of degradation. Its objective is to identify agreed durability related models and to prepare the framework for standardization of performance based design approaches. Four different options for SLD are given: - a full probabilistic approach, - a semi probabilistic approach (partial factor design), - deemed to satisfy rules, - avoidance of deterioration. The service life design approaches described in this document may be applied for the design of new structures, for updating the service life design if the structure exists and real material properties and/or the interaction of environment and structure can be measured (real concrete covers, carbonation depths), and for calculating residual service life. The bulletin is divided into five chapters: 1. General 2. Basis of design 3. Verification of Service Life Design 4. Execution and its quality management 5. Maintenance and condition control It also includes four informative annexes, which give background information and examples of procedures and deterioration models for the application in SLD. The format of Bulletin 34 follows the CEB-FIP tradition for Model Codes: the main provisions are given on the right-hand side of the page, and on the left-hand side, the comments. Note: An Italian translation of Bulletin 34 is also available; contact us for further details.
