Experimental Research on Factors Affecting Factors of Concrete Strength in Corrosion and Expanding Areas at Initial Stages of Reinforcement

Abstract:

This studypaper analyzed the affecting factors affecting of strength of concrete in corrosion and expanding areas at initial stages of reinforcement corrosion by experimental resultss, and researched the transformation trend of experimental factors by difference analyzing in statistics. The results showed that the expanding force after steel corrosion remarkably influenceds the strength of concrete. At the same time, the reinforcement diameter and thickness of concrete cover also had clear influence on concrete strength when rust occurroccurrenceed. Therefore, when studying the influence of corrosion and expanding force on concrete strength, we should not only research the influence of reinforcement corrosion magnitude, but also consider other effects, such as steel diameter, thickness of concrete cover should be considered.
