Abstract
In view of the maintenance of reinforced concrete members, it is necessary to evaluate steel corrosion in concrete. In this study, the influence of temperature on the corrosion rate of the steel bar at a joint in carbonated concrete members was investigated.
As a result of the laboratory test and the field test, the following conclusions were derived. First, it was experimentally and theoretically confirmed that the corrosion rate of the steel bar in carbonated concrete increased with temperature rising. Secondary, the corrosion rate of the steel bar in existing concrete member increased with temperature rising, and this tendency was similar to the result of laboratory test.
