✦ Synopsis


The chloride induced corrosion of both conventional reinforcing and high-strength, low-alloy, weathering, steel bars was studied.

The bars were imbeded in concrete and the latter was salted with dosages typical for bridge decks.

After five years, all samples containin~ conventional reinforcing were severely cracked.

All of the samples containing the high-strength, low-alloy steel were completely free of cracks.
