Abstract

This paper summarises the state of the art in the application of stainless steel in concrete structures as well as in the fastening technique. Fabrication and application of stainless steel in civil engineering has been undergoing development for many years. Today this material is available in different alloy compositions and has an excellent long‐time resistivity in natural environments and in contact with wet construction materials, which offer a technically attractive and also economical approach for civil engineering, primarily for corrosion endangered bearing construction elements. The higher initial cost of using stainless steel can be justified on the basis that the increase in total project cost is small and is easily overtaken by the benefits of lower maintenance and repair costs. Actually stainless steel has been used in reinforced concrete and in fastening techniques for many years. The current concerns of research is the application of high‐strength stainless steel in prestressed concrete structures.

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.
