Chloride-induced corrosion on reinforcing steel: from the fundamentals to the monitoring techniques

One of the most important causes for reinforcing steel corrosion is the presence of chloride ions. They cause localised breakdown of the passive film that initially forms on steel as a result of the alkaline nature of the pore solution in concrete. The harmful chloride ions can be originated from th...
