Long-Term Effects of Cathodic Protection on Prestressed Concrete Bridge Components
While cathodic protection effectively reduces or stops ongoing corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete, applicability of this technology to prestressing steel has been limited because of concerns of possible bond loss and hydrogen embrittlement. Within this context the present research was intended as a comprehensive, multifaceted undertaking to elevate the understanding of prestressed concrete cathodic protection to the same level as for reinforced concrete. The experimental part of the program involved both bond loss and hydrogen embrittlement, and (3) concrete block pull-out tests involving both tendon and wire.
