Ultrasonic and electromagnetic evaluation of corrosion-induced damage in reinforced concrete structures
Corrosion in steel bars has been a major cause of the degradation of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. At the early stage of corrosion, rust grows from the reinforcing bar and builds up tensile stress within the concrete, leading to cracking of the concrete cover and reduced cross-sectional areas...
