Corrosion Monitoring for Service Life Prediction of Reinforcement Concrete Infrastructures
Corrosion of rebar in concrete is one of the most frequent causes of premature failure of concrete infrastructures. It is one of the major durability problems, mainly when the rebar in the concrete is exposed to the chlorides either contributed from the concrete ingredients or penetrated from the surrounding chloride-bearing environment. Carbonation of concrete or penetration of acidic gases into the concrete, are the other causes of reinforcement corrosion. Besides these there are few more factors, some related to the concrete quality, such as w/c ratio, cement content, impurities in the concrete ingredients, presence of surface cracks, etc. and others related to the external environment, such as moisture, oxygen, humidity, temperature, bacterial attack, stray currents, etc., which affect reinforcement corrosion. The assessment of the causes and extent of corrosion is carried out using various electrochemical techniques. Prediction of the remaining service life of a corroding reinforced concrete infrastructure is done with the help of empirical models and experimental methods. In this paper a review is presented on the mechanism of reinforcement corrosion, as well as techniques and methodologies utilized to monitor reinforcement corrosion and predict remaining service life of structures. In addition, how corrosion monitoring system is designed in Jiaozhou Bay sub-sea Tunnel, which is the second subsea tunnel, is described.
