Construction reinforcement (14034)
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.
