About this document
Concrete Resistivity and Rebar Corrosion by Belkacem Mohamed El Ghazali is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The article investigates the relationship between concrete resistivity and the corrosion rate of reinforcing bars due to galvanic cells in chloride presence. Experimental results indicate a direct proportionality between corrosion rate and concrete resistivity, suggesting that corrosion is influenced by the wetted metallic surface area rather than ohmic resistance. The findings propose a new model for simulating reinforcement corrosion in concrete, emphasizing the importance of moisture saturation on corros
