1. 10022 - The resistance of stainless steel, partly embedded in concrete, to
corrosion by seawater
By G.N. Flint and R.N. Cox, reprinted from Magazine of Concrete Research, Mar 1988. Corrosion resistance of
AISI 316 stainless steel- partly embedded in concrete, partly exposed to stagnant seawater, and partly
exposed to seawater- has been determined over periods up to a dozen years. Exposure tests were carried out,
in full immersion and tidal conditions, on specially designed concrete blocks. Mild steel specimens were also
tested for comparison. Corrosion of exposed stainless steel was localized, not extensive, and affected
neither the strength nor ductility of the specimens. Contrary to expectation, crevice corrosion occurred on
only one of the 42 test specimens, and only after 12.5 years total immersion. It is considered that the
alkalinity of the concrete was responsible for minimizing corrosion on both embedded and external areas of
stainless steel.

2. 14034 - The resistance of stainless steel, partly embedded in concrete, to
corrosion by seawater
By D.B. McDonald, M.R. Sherman, D.W. Pfeifer, and Y.P. Virmani, reprinted from Concrete International, May,
1995. Designers are focusing more attention on the construction of corrosion-resistant reinforced concrete
structures. One potential method is to use highly corrosion-resistant reinforcement. Solid stainless steel
and stainless steel clad reinforcing bars have been used in Europe for many years. This paper discusses
research findings from corrosion studies of these materials, and some recent results from laboratory and
field investigations have been reviewed. Costs associated with the use of such bars are also discussed.

4. - SSINA Publication: Stainless steel rebar for construction
applications
Rust or corrosion - a familiar sight on America's roads and bridges - frequently is the culprit that triggers
the need for repair of the infrastructure. Corrosion-resistant stainless steels extend the life of a
construction project in most environments to 100 years. This leaflet covers the corrosion problem in
construction infrastructure, the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century, Why Stainless Steels, and
Life Cycle Costing Advantages.

Designer Handbook. An eight-page booklet that combines text with drawings, photographs, and charts to
illustrate how efficiently and effectively non-corrosive stainless steel can be used with concrete; motor
natural stonework and brickwork; plastics; copper and copper alloys; aluminum; and carbon, zinc and
galvanized steel.
