Modeling of Chloride Penetration in Surface Treated Concrete

Article Preview

Abstract:

The surface treatment system is one of the best options to extend the service life of marine concrete in terms of cost effectiveness versus durability performance. In order to establish rational maintenance strategies for surface treated concrete structures, however, it is necessary to define how to quantify and how to optimize the performance of the surface treatment system. The solution could be obtained from the prediction of chloride in surface treated concrete. In this study, theoretical solution to predict the behavior of chloride diffusion in surface treated concrete is constructed.
