A Study of the Influence of Reinforcement Degradation on the Durability of Reinforced Concrete Structures of Marine Berths

  • Published:
Strength of Materials Aims and scope

It was established that with increased concentrations of chlorides, sulfate-reducing bacteria, heterotrophic bacteria, thionic and iron bacteria the corrosion rate of the studied specimens of reinforcing steels sharply increases. The 40KhN and 09G2S steels had the highest resistance to corrosion, and the St.20 steel had the lowest resistance. The obtained data correlate with the results of numerical experiments reported in the publications of domestic and foreign researchers. For the first time, the data obtained from a series of experimental tests of reinforcing steels for cyclic strength showed that the steels characterized by low corrosion resistance also have a low resistance to cyclic strength, which can be explained by their degradation. The authors believe that, in the process of long-term operation of reinforced concrete structures in an aggressive environment, carbonization and chloritization of concrete, that is, its destruction occur. Further hydrogen charging of reinforced concrete causes embrittlement and reduction of the visco-plastic properties of the reinforcement, which in turn leads to the destruction of metal. The obtained results make it possible to develop metallurgical and technological measures to increase the durability of reinforced concrete structures: the use of chromium, nickel, and manganese alloyed steels for the manufacture of reinforcement with subsequent proper heat treatment; the use of modern high-strength concrete, which will ensure strong adhesion of concrete mortar to the surface of reinforcing bars.
