## Abstract Most reinforced concrete structures are damaged due to corrosion of reinforcements in concrete. In normal conditions the pH near the reinforcements is around 12β13 which means that steel is in a passive state. But aggressive species, such as chloride ions or carbon dioxide, may penetrat
The properties of cement mortars with nano-SiO 2 were experimentally studied. The amorphous or glassy silica, which is the major component of a pozzolan, reacts with calcium hydroxide formed from calcium silicate hydration. The rate of the pozzolanic reaction is proportional to the amount of surface
