About this document
Design Life of Concrete Structures in Bangladesh by rbudiman is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses methods to predict the tentative design life of reinforced concrete structures in Bangladesh. It focuses on corrosion induced by chloride ingress as a major factor reducing the lifespan of coastal structures. The quality of the concrete mix is identified as the most influential factor on service life. Two common concrete mixes in Bangladesh, ordinary Portland cement and Portland composite cement, are evaluated based on their permeability and predicted corrosion initiation times. The
