"2nd Edition 2007" Corrosion of Steel in Concrete:
Understanding, Investigation and Repair

John P. Broomfield D. Phil, CEng, FIM, FICorr, MCS Consulting Corrosion Engineer

"Corrosion of Steel in Concrete provides information on corrosion of steel in atmospherically exposed concrete structures and serves as a guide for those designing, constructing and maintaining buildings, bridges and all reinforced concrete structures. This new edition incorporates the new European standards as well as USA and other international standards. It also covers developments in galvanic and impressed current cathodic protection, new electrochemical techniques such as electro osmosis, and stainless steel clad reinforcing bars. The corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete is a major problem facing civil engineers and surveyors throughout the world today. There will always be a need to build structures in corrosive environments and it is therefore essential to address the problems that result. This is a book to educates about and forms a guide to the problems of corrosion, its causes and how to find solutions.

Contents :

  • Introduction.
  • Corrosion of steel in concrete.
  • Causes and mechanisms of corrosion and corrosion damage in concrete.
  • Condition evaluation.
  • Corrosion monitoring
  • Physical and chemical repair and rehabilitation techniques.
  • Electrochemical repair and rehabilitation techniques.
  • Rehabilitation methodology.
  • Understanding and calculating the corrosion and deterioration of reinforced concrete structures.
  • Building for durability.
  • Future developments.
  • Appendix 1 sources of information on corrosion of steel in concrete.

The Corrosion of Steel Reinforcement in the Build Environment: Bridges Buildings, Industrial Plants, Jetties, and Pipelines.
Updated Feb 2004:

Compiled by: John Broomfield

A compilation of papers presented at NACE Annual Conference 2000-2003. Several years worth of papers on corrosion of steel reinforcement in the build environment have been combined into a single volume to give an overview of the present state of the art and of the practice of corrosion assessment and control of reinforced concrete structures. The fully-searchable cdrom contains over 75 papers that have been grouped into major subjects and sub-headings. The editor has also provided cross-references to other papers on the cdrom as well. Aimed at those involved in the research, development, engineering, and maintenance of reinforced concrete structures, the cdrom enables the corrosion engineer to carry an electronic toolbox of assessment and rehabilitation techniques.

Concrete: Building Pathology

This book deals with the diagnosis, prognosis and repair issues associated with concrete buildings. It brings together experts in the history, defect diagnosis, remediation and maintenance of concrete. It includes case studies from around the world to illustrate the various repair methods available.

NACE Corrosion Annual Conference Visit Report on Corrosion in Concrete Activities

Every year John Broomfield attends the NACE annual Conference in the USA.  This a gathering of around 6000 corrosion delegates from all over the world.  NACE publishes standards, test methods and state-of-the-art reports.  There are currently over 16 committees on corrosion of steel in concrete writing such documents covering:

Cathodic protection

- Impressed Current
- Galvanic
- Buried and submerged
- Prestressed Structures
- Testing
- Anodes

- Realkalisation
- Electrochemical Chloride Extraction
- Reference Electrodes
- Corrosion Inhibitors
- Coatings for steel and concrete
- Corrosion resistant reinforcement
- Evaluation of structures

There is an annual one day symposium on corrosion of steel in concrete with over 10 papers on the subject.  The abstracts are given in an appendix to the report.  The report is nine pages including title page and appendices.
