The determination of the fracture process zone in concrete is a difficult experimental problem, because the resulting deformation is strongly localized and cannot be measured adequately by strain-gages or coarse moir4 techniques. The preliminary results of an experimental study of the strain field i

The cement paste in the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) around aggregate particles has a significantly higher porosity than bulk cement paste. This elevated porosity will effect the transport properties of concrete. The penetration of Wood's metal into concrete samples indicates that the porosity
## Abstract This paper provides a brief review of research aimed at characterising the steelβconcrete interfacial zone (SCIZ) and its influence on the susceptibility of the metal to pitting corrosion when concrete is exposed to environments that cause ingress of chloride ions accompanied by leachin
