Özet

This research discusses the chloride diffusivity of concrete as well as corrosion performance of rebars in cracked and uncracked states. Prismatic concrete specimens with two water-tocement ratios, two concrete cover thicknesses with and without steel fibers were used. Threepoint flexural loading was applied to form cracks and cracks were sustained by a bolt system. Half-cell potential and corrosion rate measurements were carried out following wetting - drying cycles in chloride environment which were continued for 80 weeks. The positive effects of lower water-to-cement ratio and greater cover depth were found to be surpassed by existence of cracks in concrete.
