✦ Synopsis


Difficulties associated with the interpretation of site data collected over long periods of time from commonly used electrochemical corrosion monitoring techniques often make it difficult to assess the corrosion of reinforcing steel. An alternative approach for the interpretation of data is proposed, based on a model of the quality of passive film upon the steel surface. This model leads to a representation of the corrosion state by means of the relationship, over a long period of time, of the corrosion potential and the logarithm of the Linear Polarization Resistance, since both are functions inter alia of corrosion rate. It is shown that for the reinforced concrete panels tested, data points representing this relationship closely fitted a family of results; allowing the development of a "monitoring control diagram", MCD. The MCD reveals that for a fixed geometry and experimental conditions, a relationship between the corrosion potential and polarization resistance of steel exists, facilitating a useful monitoring tool for assessment of both the corrosion and remediation of reinforced concrete structures. Particular emphasis is placed on the latter in this work.
