... to probabilistically understand the future corrosion progression rate. Corresponding author Pang-Jo Chun (chun@g.ecc.u-tokyo.ac.jp) 03 10 2025 13 11 2025 Corrosion in steel bridges is among the most critical forms of deterioration to manage, given its direct impact on structural capacity...

...Anil Raj It is truly overwhelming that, despite nearly a century of durability studies on reinforced cement concrete structures, new cases of premature distress most notably corrosion continue to emerge worldwide, highlighting the persistent challenges in ensuring long-term structural integrity...

...Nikolaos Kalyviotis Accurate estimation of atmospheric and soil corrosion is fundamental to the design and longevity of steel structures, particularly those exposed to elements such as rain, wind, sunlight, and temperature fluctuations. This research compares five widely used methodologies...

... and finds its way inside concrete through connected pores if the degree of compaction is not proper. Stagnant rainwater in the roof or a high water table may pave the way for the entry of water. The entry of water into structural concrete mainly causes corrosion, thereby reducing the strength of structural...

.... The inspection intervals for the wall were insufficient to have picked up the defect, and the change of use had not been sufficiently considered. The marine environment provides excellent accelerators to the corrosion process – namely, chlorides and wetting/drying, which are ever present...

...Mayuko Nishio, PhD; Masato Abé, PhD The Myōkō Bridge is a prestressed-concrete (PC) box-girder bridge located in the heavy-snowfall area in Japan. It was opened in 1972, and failure of PC cables due to severe corrosion was found in 2009. It was decided to replace the bridge with a new one based...

... and decreases dramatically the concrete’s alkalinity in the carbonated zone. Consequently, when carbonation reaches the depth of the reinforcing steel in exposed reinforced concrete facades, the steel is no longer protected by the concrete’s natural passivity due to its high pH. The resulting corrosion and rust...

..., ultimately resulting in their removal and partial replacement. The failures in Glyn Bends rock cutting were detected when head assembly components were found on the ground during a routine inspection. The investigation of the 120-year design life double-corrosion-protected anchorages included the innovative...
