Chloride transport and reinforcement corrosion in the vicinity of the transition zone between substrate and repair concrete Skoglund, Pål

By: Publication details: Stockholm Kungliga Tekniska högskolan, 2006; Institutionen för byggvetenskap, ; Trita-BKN.Bulletin, 89, Description: 95 sSubject(s): Online resources: Bibl.nr: VTI 2008.0170Location: Abstract: One of the major degradation problems in concrete structures is chloride initiated reinforcement corrosion resulting in cracked, spalled and delaminated concrete. These damages are repaired for large amounts of money and because of high repair costs it is important to perform durable repairs. This thesis work has included interviews, laboratory and field studies in the area of concrete repairs. The interviews were held mainly with bridge engineers at the Swedish Road Administration and Banverket (the Swedish Railway Administration). The questions asked to these people were about their experience in the field of concrete repairs. The objective withthe interview study was to collect knowledge and experience about concrete repair at these two governmental authorities.
