We propose a method to measure a parameter highly relevant for corrosion assessments or predictions of reinforced concrete structures. The main advantage is that the method permits testing samples taken from engineering structures. This ensures real conditions at the steel-concrete interface, which is crucial to avoid artefacts of laboratory-made samples.

Abstract

We propose a method to measure a parameter highly relevant for corrosion assessments or predictions of reinforced concrete structures. The main advantage is that the method permits testing samples taken from engineering structures. This ensures real conditions at the steel-concrete interface, which is crucial to avoid artefacts of laboratory-made samples.
