Bridging the Gap: Assessing Material Performance of Laboratory Specimens and Concrete Structures

Chloride ingress and carbonation pose a significant risk of steel rebar corrosion in concrete structures. Various models exist to simulate the initiation phase of rebar corrosion, addressing both carbonation and chloride ingress mechanisms separately. These models also consider the environmental loa...
