Study on chloride binding of self-compacting concrete with different crack lengths: non-steady state migration test Ghent University
Concrete cracks, caused by mechanical loading, thermal stresses, shrinkage etc., can provide some shortcuts for aggressive substances to reach the surface of rebars and initiate corrosion. The present paper investigates the chloride binding of self-compacting concrete with different crack lengths using non steady state migration test. The obtained experimental results are further analysed. For the crack length, we adopted a non-destructive notch ...
