Among the multitude of concrete structure pathologies, corrosion of rebars is one of the most important problems of concrete durability. In the context of sustainable development, it appears of primary importance to develop new means to protect the rebars against corrosion. This study aims to develo

β¦ Synopsis
In the recent past, the damage caused by rebar corrosion in concrete structures has been considered as one of the major durability problems affecting the service life of concrete structures. In order to prevent corrosion of steel reinforcement, various types of protective methods have been adopted. One of the protective measures is using galvanized reinforcement in concrete to enhance the service life.
In the present study various types of galvanized rebars namely bare -Cold Twisted Deformed (CTD), bare -Thermo Mechanically Treated (TMT), galvanized -Cold Twisted Deformed, Gal-vanized -Thermo Mechanically Treated, galvanized and chromated -Cold Twisted Deformed, galvanized and chromated -Thermo Mechanically Treated and stainless steel rebars have been evaluated for their corrosion resistance in M30 grade concrete under macro cell corrosion condition over a period of one year. From the studies it has been observed that TMT bars performed better when compared to CTD bars. Among the rebars tested, stainless steel rebar has shown negligible corrosion in chloride contaminated concrete.
