Corrosion of embedded reinforcement is the most prevalent form of degradation of
reinforced concrete structures, and may impair structural capacity through loss of bar …

The tensile behaviors of corroded steel bars are important in the capacity evaluation of
corroded reinforced concrete structures. However, information on the tensile behaviors of …

An experimental investigation into the effect of corrosion on the ductility of steel
reinforcement is reported. Both accelerated and simulated corrosion tests were conducted …

The corrosion, main cause of degradation in RC structures in non-exceptional conditions,
can have also significant effects on the seismic behaviour, leading to dangerous strain …

The corrosion of steel rebar negatively affects the serviceability and capacity of RC bridges
and increases their vulnerability in earthquakes. Most of existing numerical models rely on …

In the present study, the tensile properties of naturally and artificially corroded steel rebars of
different grades and diameter are experimentally investigated. Naturally corroded steel …

Exposure to aggressive environments is one of the most critical problems of reinforced
concrete (RC) structures, which can affect both their static and dynamic behaviour. In this …

The objective of this research is to evaluate numerically and experimentally the cyclic
performance of corroded columns constructed with accelerated bridge construction (ABC) …

This paper presents the analytical results to investigate cracking and delamination of
concrete beam due to steel corrosion. A series of concrete beams were idealised as two …

Exposure to aggressive environments is one of the main causes of reinforced concrete (RC)
civil infrastructure degradation and damage, which can become critical if such structures are …
