The durability of concrete is determined largely by its deterioration over time which is
affected by the environment. Climate change may alter this environment, especially in the …

Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) and its associated deformation are major durability problems in
concrete structures and was reported as far back as the 1940s by Stanton (2008)[1]. This …

Recent findings reported in the contemporary literature have underlined the criticality of
including climate change effects in models of deterioration of civil engineering structures …

Chloride penetration is among the main causes of corrosion initiation in reinforced concrete
(RC) structures producing premature degradations. Weather and exposure conditions …

The considerable network of transportation infrastructures such as highways, rails, and so
forth are key providers to economic growth and productivity of countries. Consecutively …

Climate change is expected to impact both the operational and structural performance of
infrastructure such as buildings, roads, and bridges. However, infrastructure design guides …

Bending and corrosion-induced cracks interact and impact the durability of Reinforced
Concrete (RC) beams in a complex manner. Still, research on the mechanisms behind this …

Absence of proper curing results in weaker and permeable concrete and eventually,
reduces the service life of reinforced concrete (RC) structures significantly, particularly in …

Ingress of chloride ions is the prime determinant for inducing corrosion damage to marine
Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures and subsequent lowered service life. Being attributable …

This study underscores the critical need to integrate changing climatic conditions into
corrosion models for civil engineering infrastructures, particularly highway bridges, given the …
