  • Corrosion of Steel in Concrete: Prevention, Diagnosis, Repair

    Corrosion of Steel in Concrete: Prevention, Diagnosis, Repair
    Jan 20 2026
    Provides an extensive, systematic guide for engineers to understand and combat the deterioration of reinforced concrete structures, particularly due to rebar corrosion. The content covers the fundamentals of concrete composition and its protective alkalinity, contrasting this with the reality that structures are not "eternal" because of corrosion initiation caused by carbonation and chloride penetration. Much of the text discusses the mechanisms and kinetics of corrosion, detailing the roles of water, porosity, and transport processes like diffusion and migration, and explores various preventative measures including quality control, special cements, corrosion-resistant rebar, and surface treatments. Finally, the source addresses inspection and condition assessment techniques, such as potential mapping and corrosion rate measurement, and outlines repair and rehabilitation strategies using conventional patching, as well as advanced electrochemical methods like cathodic protection and chloride extraction.

  • Corrosion of Steel in Concrete: Understanding, investigation and repair

    Corrosion of Steel in Concrete: Understanding, investigation and repair
    Jan 19 2026
    Detailing the corrosion of steel in concrete, specifically focusing on the causes, mechanisms, investigation, and repair of this major infrastructure problem. The sources emphasize the economic and safety implications of concrete deterioration and introduce various evaluation and monitoring techniques used by civil engineers, such as reference electrode surveys and linear polarization resistance measurements. A significant portion of the material is dedicated to rehabilitation methodologies, discussing conventional physical repairs like patching and overlays, as well as advanced electrochemical treatments including cathodic protection, chloride extraction, and realkalization. Finally, the text explores different design strategies for durability in new construction, evaluating options like epoxy-coated reinforcement and corrosion inhibitors to mitigate future corrosion issues.

  • Concrete Pavement Repair Manuals of Practice

    Concrete Pavement Repair Manuals of Practice
    Jan 18 2026
    Comprehensive manuals of practice for maintaining and repairing concrete pavements, addressing two distinct types of necessary maintenance. The first manual focuses on the intricate procedures, materials, and equipment required for the repair of joint seals in concrete pavements, including detailed steps for joint preparation, sealant installation, and cost-effectiveness analysis. The second manual concentrates on the necessary planning, materials, and construction techniques for the rapid repair of partial-depth spalls, outlining various patch preparation methods, material selection, and quality control measures. Both texts emphasize the importance of correct procedures, safety, and proper material selection to ensure the long-term performance of highway repairs, providing extensive checklists, tables, and cost-estimating worksheets.
