Abstract

Steel bar corrosion is a major cause of the durability failure of concrete structures. Researches of corrosion were basically done in steel bars without stress by domestic and foreign scholars. Therefore, it is significant to study the relationship between rebar strain and corrosion rate by testing. In the test, reinforced bar groups were imposed with different levels of strain and the strains were kept by reaction frame. Then, these groups were put into the salt spray device for accelerated corrosion in four time periods. Finally, mass loss rates of these reinforced bars were measured and calculated. By data fitting, the result shows a relation between mass loss rate and strain level of reinforced bars.
