Abstract

An experimental study to evaluate to evaluate corrosion protection systems was undertaken with 44 reinforced concrete slab specimens subjected to cyclic wet and dry saltwater exposure. Corrosion measurements included monitoring macrocell corrosion currents, which are genrerally accecpted in United States practice. Test results indicate that specimens containing 2 kg/$\textrm{m}^3$ of NaCl and exposed to wet(outdoor) and dry(indoor) conditions but not to saltwater show very low values of corrosion measurements regardless applying any corrosion protective systems. Corrosion currents of the specimens exposed at 10 percent of NaCl were higher than that of the specimen exposed at 5 percent of NaCl, so the density of the salt water had an influential effect on the test. For the specimens with water repellent membrane currents kept relatively low numerical values, but test specimens with surface corrosion inhibitor protective system showed high values of corrosion current. It would be expected that evaluation of the corrosion protective systems need long-term measurement.
