Abstract
Cathodic protection was first introduced as a technology for preventing the corrosion of metals in seawater and underground environments in the early 19th century, eventually leading to the introduction of cathodic protection to the reinforced concrete technology sector in the 1970s. In the 1990s, it was demonstrated that the effectiveness of corrosion protection had increased through a number of developments and studies. Recently, cathodic protection was applied to some reinforced concrete structures and has gradually expanded in scope in South Korea. Technical expertise is necessary to understand the underlying electrochemical principles and also because cathodic protection is important for normal physical maintenance. Therefore, in this study, we introduce the technical details and examples of applications of the cathodic protection of reinforced concrete, including the basic theory, principles, and other criteria.
