Abstract:
Based on a study of many structures that have suffered from damage due to chloride-induced corrosion of reinforced steel, it appears that even the more stringent limits on chloride now being proposed may be too lenient. Furthermore, only determinations of total chloride may provide a. basis for reasonable assurance against future corrosion.
