摘要
Reinforcement corrosion is the major cause of damage and early failure of reinforced concrete structures worldwide with subsequent enormous costs for maintenance, restoration and replacement. Many methods used today for assessment of reinforcement corrosion are based on electrochemical techniques that determine the free corrosion potential or polarization resistance. Most of these methods always consider the B value in Stern-Geary equation as constant. However, B changes with different condition. In this paper, potentialdynamic method is used to characterize the corrosion of reinforcing steel. The corrosion rate of Q235 carbon steel is measured with concrete environment. B is calculated real-time. By this way, the error of reinforcement corrosion rate is minimized.
