This Record presents 5 papers on corrosion of reinforcing steel in bridge decks and one paper on corrosion from stray earth currents. These papers include a novel way of protecting the bridge deck reinforcing steel cathodically; a discussion of tests to determine what construction techniques and portland cement concrete mix design factors are most beneficial in delaying reinforcing steel corrosion under exposure to de-icing salts; a presentation of performance data on Kansas bridges, identification of corrosion distress as to source, and recommendation of preventive measures; a description of what specifications have been found necessary to achieve the desired cover depth on construction; a description of protection of the reinforcing steel by coatings; and a discussion of work done on the BART system to identify and correct sources of stray current arising from negative return grounding connections.
