In 2000 a proposal was launched to install a new Task Group of Working Party 11 of the European Federation of Corrosion, EFC, on modelling of reinforcement corrosion in concrete. Whereas the initiation stage of corrosion, i.e. chloride ingress and carbonation, has received considerable attention dur

Abstract
As part of the macro cell corrosion process of reinforcement steel, the resistivity of concrete plays a crucial role. In order to investigate the influence parameters on the resistivity of concrete, the results of a discrete quantification were presented and implemented into a factorial approach for modelling corrosion propagation. First results delivered significant deviations from values obtained by measuring. Using Gauss' method of least mean squares provided a decrease in deviations. The hereby obtained deviations were lower than the scatter of the measuring results. A usability of the proposed factorial approach could therefore be approved.

## Abstract Reinforcement corrosion is influenced by different parameters like resistivity of concrete, setting conditions and also by concrete technology. Moreover the presence of cathodic areas and the possibility of unhampered cathodic reaction influences the reinforcement corrosion. In this pap
## Abstract Since the initiation stage of the damage process due to reinforcement corrosion had been successfully investigated in the recent past, the damage progress in the propagation stage is currently in the focus of research. This work deals with the mechanisms of cracking and spalling due to
## Abstract The prediction of concrete cracking due to corrosion in atmospheric/carbonated conditions is a major issue for the evaluation of the durability of structures and the choice of maintenance policies. Because of the complexity of the phenomenon, a fully predictive approach is still missing
Reinforced concrete is a composite structural material which has been the subject of extensive research since it was first used. When considering the rational properties, the research has mainly centred on the behaviour of the concrete, that of the reinforcing steel and the interaction between the s
The deterioration of a concrete structure by reinforcement corrosion proceeds in two phases: the initiation stage and the propagation stage. The first stage describes the time to onset of corrosion due to carbonation of the concrete or chloride ingress. The second stage is the actual deterioration s
