Drs Kobayashi and Uno have obtained some very useful results in showing, through accelerated carbonation and exposure tests, that the rate of carbonation of concrete is higher, the greater the alkali content of the cement (1). Such results should not be considered as surprising when the reaction mec

## Abstract The increase in the rebar corrosion rate due to the concrete carbonation is the major cause of reinforced concrete degradation. The aim of this study was to investigate the corrosion behavior of mild steel rebars in simulated carbonated concrete solution. For this purpose, thermodynamic
The hydroxides of Li, Na, K, Sr and Ba reacted with the resin to produce large amounts of hydrogen and CO. The order of reactivity was, Li < K < Na and Ca, Mg < Sr < Ba. Carbonates evolve only a small amount of hydrogen, although evolution of CO was very large. Carbonates cannot react with reactive
The influence of mechanical loading effects on carbonation or chloride penetration is studied. Specimens are reinforced concrete beams of 3 m long which are stored in a mechanical loading state and in aggressive environments. Carbonated cover depths and chloride contents are measured. The results sh
