摘要

Many Florida bridges are built of steel-reinforced concrete. Florida’s humid and marine environments subject steel in these structures to corrosion once water and salt penetrate the concrete and contact the steel. Corroded steel takes up more space than the original steel, resulting in cracked and spalling concrete which further exposes the steel, and requires expensive repairs and corrosion control techniques
