AMPP Paper 16179-2021: The Determination of the Chloride Threshold of Stainless Steel in Concrete – a Review

�� FREE PREVIEW (First 5 Pages) ✔ First 5 pages free to download · No email required · Full document available after purchase This paper presents a compilation and critical discussion of test methods for corrosion resistance of stainless steel from literature. It addresses the corrosion of steel in concrete, particularly in chloride-exposed structures, and explores the use of stainless steel as a reinforcement alternative to carbon steel. The paper examines the importance of determining the corrosion resistance of reinforcing stainless steel for accurate service life estimation and steel type comparability during design. It discusses the limitations of current durability design rules and the need for improved test methods to quantify the advantages of using stainless steel in concrete. The first five pages are available for free preview.
