The corrosion of steel in concrete is significant in marine environment. Salt damage is one of the most detrimental causes to concrete bridges and port structures. Especially, the splash and tidal zones around water line are comparatively important in terms of safety and life-time point of view. During the last several decades, cathodic protection (cp) has been commonly accepted as an effective technique for corrosion control in concrete structures. Zn-mesh sacrificial anode has been recently developed and started to apply to the bridge column cp in marine condition. The detailed parameters regarding Zn-mesh cp technique, however, have not well understood so far. This study is to investigate how much Zn-mesh cp influences along the concrete column at elevated temperature. About 100 cm column specimens with eight of 10 cm segment rebars have been used to measure the variation of cp potential with the distance from Zn-mesh anode at both $10^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$ in natural seawater. The cp potential change and current diminishment along the column specimens have been discussed for the optimum design of cp by Zn-mesh sacrificial anode.

This paper presents the results of a study of the effectiveness of cathodic protection with insoluble ICCP anode in reinforced concrete structures. Experimental tests were carried out on reinforced concrete specimens with 3 different commercial anodes for ICCP system in order to compare the effectiveness of cathodic protection. Results have shown that the kinds of anode for ICCP is irrelevant to the effectiveness of cathodic protection, In case of ICCP, the performance of cathodic protection has no relationship to the kinds of anode especially in concrete specimens with sea water condition. It has been found slightly more effective at Ti-Rod anode in fresh water condition and Ti-Mesh anode in atmospheric condition.

전기방식 공법은 해양 강구조물의 방식공법으로 처음 소개되었고, 1970년 이후로는 전기방식 공법은 콘크리트 구조물에 적용되기 시작하였다. 1990년 이후에는 콘크리트 구조물의 철근 방식 공법으로서 전기방식 공법의 사용빈도수가 늘어나게 되었고, 그 유용성 또한 입증이 되었다. 하지만 이러한 전기방식 공법에는 시공성, 경제성 측면에서의 몇 가지 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 고내구성 금속용사를 이용한 양극재(Zn, Al) 형성방식을 개발하게 되었고, 이미 강구조물에 있어서는 그 효용성이 입증되어 적용 사례가 점차 늘어나고 있다. 이러한 금속용사 전기방식 공법의 콘크리트 구조물 내 전기방식적 효율을 증명하기 위해 부식촉진 실험을 실시하였으며, 해당 실험체의 촉진 단계별 부식전류밀도를 측정하였다. 그 결과 금속용사 전기방식 공법이 콘크리트 구조물의 기존 전기방식 공법과 비교하여 충분한 방식성능을 확보함을 확인하였다.

Protection against salt attack in seawater is obtained by using a dense, quality concrete with a low water-cement ratio, and a components appropriate for producing concrete having the needed salt resistance. The objective of this study is to evaluate the feature of corrosion with using the various concrete materials under marine exposure environment. According to the test results, slag powder and anti -corrosion inhibitor showed high chloride resistance effect. Also concre crack have an influence on corrosion of steel in spite of mixed design for salt resistance concrete. The requirement for low permeability is essential not only to delay the effect of salt attack, but also to afford adquate protection to reinforcement with admixtures.

양극과 철근과의 사이에 이온의 흐름이 원활하도록 전도성이 우수한 탄소리본전극과 표면코팅을 실기한 후 무공해, 반영구적인 무한태양전기를 전류로 공급한 전기방식에 의한 콘크리트 중의 철근 부식 방지 효과를 알아보기 위하여 복극량, 철근의 복극전위 및 부식속도를 측정하였다. 실험결과 방식을 실시한 모든 대상 시험체가 NACE의 복극량 기준 100 mV 기준을 만족하였으며, 방식을 실시한 경우 복극전위와 부식속도가 안정적인 범위에 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Currently many researches have been performed for enhancing durability of concrete. Rice husk ash has several advantages like early strength of concrete and dense pore structure. A calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) gel around the cement particles due to pozzolanic reaction of rice husk can increase the strength of concrete against cracking. Very limitedly a systematic and detailed investigation on the corrosion performance of rice husk ash and silica fume blended concrete is performed. A realistic approach has been made through compressive strength, bond strength, and split tensile strength etc. Corrosion performance was also evaluated rapid chloride ion penetration test (RCPT) and impressed voltage test, and the results were discussed in the paper.

An experimental study to evaluate corrosion protection systems was undertaken with 47 reinforced concrete slab specimens subjected to cyclic wet and dry saltwater exposure. Corrosion measurements included monitoring marcrocell corrosion currents, which are generally accepted in United States practice. Test results indicate that specimens containing 2 kg/$\textrm{m}^3$ of NaCl an exposed to a 10 percent of NaCl show high values of corrosion currents. For the specimens with water repellent membrane currents kept relatively low numerical values, while test specimens with surface corrosion inhibitor hyprotective systems show high values of corrosion currents. No clear indication of the corrosion inhibitor protective systems might be due to the extremely high chloride exposure of the specimens, which has brought the accelerated corrosion. It would be expected that evaluation of the corrosion protective systems need long-term measurement with specimen exposed les chloride but simulating the real condition.

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.

This paper presents electrochemical corrosion behaviors of cement mortar specimens in the high salinity condition. Chloride ion is known as the most detrimental parameter to cause the corrosion in reinforced concrete. Increasing the concrete cover thickness is one of the corrosion protection methods against chloride ion; so, this study mainly focuses on the effects of mortar cover thickness on corrosion protection. In specimens, rebar, which was a height of 200 mm and a diameter of 10 mm, was installed at the center of the small size form. Later on, mortar was injected into the form, and 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mm of the different mortar cover thicknesses were selected. Potential measurements, linear polarization resistance tests, and cyclic potentiodynamic polarization tests were performed for specimens that were exposed to seawater. These results were compared with visual inspection results of rebar. The results show that an increase in the cover thickness contributes to corrosion protection. In addition, the result of electrochemical corrosion tests generally agreed with that of an autopsy visual inspection.

Marine concrete structures have been exposed to salt from ocean environments. Chloride-penetration into marine concrete structures should accelerate the corrosion of reinforcement steel, which may severely affect the durability of them. Major concerns are to develop durable concrete for high corrosion resistance of reinforcing steel embedded in concrete. The objective of this experimental study is to investigate adequate usage of corrosion inhibitors by evaluating corrosion level in 80 specimen located in the labatory and in the site. 80 specimen of cube 20${\times}$20${\times}$11.5 and 63 specimen of slab 30${\times}$30${\times}$10 are made for this study.
