Corrosion of Reinforced Concrete Structures: Mechanism, Monitoring and Control presents research, theory and practice on the control of corrosion in reinforced concrete structures. The title is a comprehensive guide to corrosion, its monitoring and prevention in reinforced concrete structures. It considers the essential mechanisms of corrosion, provides key monitoring techniques, describes how to effectively control corrosion, and how to establish a cyber-physical protection system. As corrosion is one of the most significant factors in the deterioration of civil engineering structures globally, and with concrete the world’s most utilized manufactured material, this book highlights strategies to keep corrosion from becoming a serious threat.
- Focuses on corrosion in reinforced concrete structures
- Presents the mechanisms involved in the corrosion of reinforced concrete
- Provides guidance on the assessment of corrosion and methods of corrosion control
- Details how to set up an effective cyber-physical-system to protect reinforced concrete structures
- Collates and presents the latest research from multiple disciplines on corrosion in reinforced concrete structures
