Assessment of structural behavior of corrosion affected structures is an important issue; which would help in making certain decisions pertaining to the inspection, repair, strengthening, replacement and demolition of such structures. Depending on the level of oxidation of metallic iron, corrosion p

Cracking of the cover concrete due to steel corrosion is considered by many researchers to indicate the end-of-service life of corrosion-affected reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Numerous models have been developed to predict the time from corrosion initiation to cracking of the cover concrete.
## Abstract Prediction of time from corrosion initiation to corrosion cracking is a crucial factor in evaluating concrete structures' durability and integrity deteriorated by reinforcement corrosion. This paper presents a mathematical model to predict the time from corrosion initiation to corrosion
