Corrosion Assessments for Parking Structures
• Professional services to extend the service life of parking and building structures
• Understanding the cause and effect of reinforcing steel corrosion in concrete
• Quantifying the magnitude and extent of corrosion risk.
• Many destructive and non-destructive test methods for assessing corrosion risk.
![Page 7: Corrosion Assessments for Parking Structures](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcff70a2059926fb6df9a3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What is really happening in the concrete?
• Large Near surface Delamination
• Extent of delamination beyond what sounding can pick up
• Corrosion is active but has not formed enough iron oxide to create significant cracking
![Page 8: Corrosion Assessments for Parking Structures](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcff70a2059926fb6df9a3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Corrosion
• Electrochemical reaction requires:
• Moisture• Electrolyte – concrete• Metallic path – steel
• Anode• Where rust is formed
• Cathode• No section loss
![Page 9: Corrosion Assessments for Parking Structures](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020706/61fcff70a2059926fb6df9a3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Chloride ions diffuse into concrete and destroy steel’s passive layer
• Source of chlorides• Marine environments• De-icing salts• Chemical/processing plants• Cast into concrete
• Chlorides are not consumed in corrosion reaction, therefore, once threshold concentration reached, corrosion can occur unabated
Chloride Induced

•Carbon dioxide permeates into concrete
•Reduces pH of concrete• CO2 reacts with free lime, Ca(OH) 2,
resulting in CaCO3 and H2O•Reduced pH de-passivates steel•Often seen when
• Concrete permeability is high• Industrial sites• Very old structures – carbonation is a
result of time and exposure

Corrosion Induced Damage
•Conventional mild reinforcing bar• Typically damage to concrete becomes significant
and observable prior to severe steel section loss •High Strength Tendons
• Minor section loss of steel can have significant effect on strength
• Steel can have significant section loss without significant concrete damage

•Severe corrosion damage on levels A, B and C• Delamination and spalling• Concrete with high chloride contact, active corrosion• Near entry way, exposed to most amount of traffic and deicing chemicals
•Little to no damage on level D, E and F• Deeper in the garage, less traffic and reduction in chloride exposure
•Corrosion activity on all ramps• Turning of vehicle wheels and more traffic lead to early deterioration of elastomeric coating, allowing greater chloride diffusion
