摘要：Methods for reinforcement steel corrosion protection and concrete surface protection are analyzed.Knowing the corrosion process mechanism reinforcement steel can be protected by different protection methods even in the presence of crevices larger than those anticipated by design.The selection of the corrosion protection method depends on the reduction level of the reinforcement steel corrosion which in its turn is determined by the atmospheric conditions.The selection of the accelerated corrosion test conditions was made revealing the mechanism of the processes that take place at the steel reinforcement surface under natural weathering conditions.Crevices ranging from 0.05mm to 1.00mm or larger were opened by bending reinforced concrete girders on special equipment and were maintained all over the period of the corrosion resistance study.
