Results of accelerated laboratory studies reported in this paper show that a high tricalcium aluminate content of cement has a significant beneficial effect on reinforcement corrosion resistance performance of concrete structures. On an average, a 9.5% Type I cement performs 1.62 times better than a

Pore solution study has been carried out on 2.43 and 14% C3A hardened cement pastes. Data have been analyzed in conjunction with the data developed in two pore solution studies made by Page and Vennesland and Diamond using 7.37 and 9.1% C3A mature cement pastes. The results show that C3A and alkali
## Abstract Although rarely considered, especially within the investigation of steel corrosion phenomena or electrochemical protection techniques in reinforced concrete structures, the concrete bulk matrix has a significant contribution in the global performance of the system βreinforced concrete.β
