Water is often added to concrete placing for easy workability and finishability in construction
site. The additional mixing water can help easy mixing and workability but causes increased …

Early-aged cracks due to hydration heat and drying shrinkage occur unavoidably in
reinforced concrete (RC) structures. These cracks may be the main routes through which …

Carbonation in cracked concrete is considered as one of major deteriorations accelerating
steel corrosion in reinforced concrete structures. For durable concrete structures, it is …

Chloride-induced corrosion in reinforcing steel is one of the major durability problems in
reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Fick's 2nd law can be simply applied to submerged RC …

In recent years, the number of reinforced concrete structures with anomalies associated with
reinforcement corrosion problems has significantly increased. One of the causes is concrete …

Chloride attack is one of the major causes of deterioration of reinforced concrete structures.
In order to evaluate the chloride behavior in concrete, a reasonable prediction for the …

The pores and pore connectivity in concrete cause rapid water permeation. This is an
important characteristic of porous material. Cracks in early aged concrete can be easily …

RC (Reinforced Concrete) structures undergo deterioration and the initiated corrosion in the
steel is considered as one of the most critical problems. For efficient construction of …

This paper presents an analysis technique for AGS (autogenous shrinkage) in high
performance concrete (HPC) with mineral and chemical admixtures. In this paper …

In this study, strength and chloride migration tests were conducted considering nuclear
power plant concrete exposed to high temperature and chloride ingress. Two temperature …
