| Abstract | ||
| ABSTRACT Steel-reinforced concrete is widely used in construction. The corrosion of the steel reinforcing bars (rebars) in concrete limits the service life of concrete structures. Corrosion is one of the main causes for the deterioration of the civil construction and infrastructure. Efficiency of using reinforcing bars coating materials to reduce the effect of water and salt solutions on the steel reinforcement in concrete to extend the life of reinforced concrete structures was investigated in this ex perimental program. In this study, the concrete used had a compressive strength of 25.5 MPa. Steel rebars were first coated with locally available painting materials in Egypt to investigate the feasibility of protect against environmental effect as chlori de attack then, the rebars as well as embedded rebars in concrete were immersed in 5% concentration NaCL solution for 3 months to investigate the corrosion effect by using the bond test before and after chloride attack and rust performing. | ||
