(v12preprint46)Ductility Performance of Corrosion-Damaged Reinforced Concrete Beams

摘要

This paper presents the results of an experimental study to investigate the corrosionactivity in reinforced concrete beams. All specimens 150X250X3000mm in size were cast andtested for the present investigation. One beam was tested as a virgin while two beams wereexposed to accelerated corrosion damage of 10% and 25%. The deflection got reduced by27.58% and 34.49% due to corrosion reinforcement.
