Application of Stainless Steel Reinforcing Bars in Infrastructures—Requirements and Evaluation of Corrosion Resistance
In order to avoid corrosion critical situations, preventive measures can be taken for particularly susceptible parts of the structure. The project-specific selection of corrosion protection measures for reinforcing steel should be based on the overall concept of sustainable construction, taking into account technical and economic aspects as well as the preservation of the ecosystem and the environment. For construction with stainless reinforcing steel, this means using the product with the lowest content of alloying elements on a project-specific basis (assuming equivalent sustainability of the production process of the considering products), while still meeting the technical requirements. On the technical side, the required level of corrosion resistance of the stainless reinforcing steel has to be determined on a project-specific basis. The laboratory test method ECISS provides a tool for determining the actual corrosion resistance of stainless reinforcing steels, taking into account the type and content of alloying elements, as well as any process-related improvement of the reinforcing steel. This article presents test results using this test method.
