Comparative Analysis of Engineering Carbonation Model Extensions to Account for Pre-Existing Cracks

Comparative Analysis of Engineering Carbonation Model Extensions to Account for Pre-Existing Cracks

Cracks in reinforced concrete structures can accelerate the local depassivation of reinforcement due to carbonation. Different approaches have been proposed to account for pre-existing cracks within engineering models to predict the carbonation depth. In this study, we provide a detailed comparative...
