Abstract

Even if properly designed, crack formation in reinforced concrete structures is inevitable for activating the reinforcements’ tensile capacity. Although in cracked concrete the barrier property of the protective concrete cover against corrosion initiating substances, such as chlorides, is considerably reduced (Šavija & Schlangen 2010), it is not yet completely understood whether cracks accelerate only the corrosion initiation process or the overall corrosion process (Yu et al. 2014).
