Corrosion of reinforced concrete (RC) structures has been one of the major causes of
structural failure. Early detection of the corrosion process could help limit the location and …

Reinforcement corrosion is a major culprit that undermines the service life of reinforced
concrete (RC) structures. It costs billions of dollars each year in the US alone and negatively …

The evaluation of internal damage in concrete structures is related to not only its rapid repair
and reinforcement but also its safe usage, and is therefore essential for ensuring its …

In this study, a new method is proposed to determine chloride ion (Cl−) concentration and
steel rebar corrosion from hyperspectral spectroscopy. Three groups of mortar cubes with …

Infrared thermal imaging is a novel corrosion detection technique that is influenced by the
thermal properties of the object under investigation. This study investigated the effect of …

The first appearance of concern for the good condition of a building dates back to ancient
times. In recent years, with the emergence of new inspection technologies and the growing …

Corrosion of steel bar is one of key factors undermining reinforced concrete (RC) structures
in a harsh environment. This paper attempts to review the non-destructive procedures from …

RC structures degrade primarily due to corrosion-induced damages, mostly by the loss of
steel rebar volume. The prediction of time-varying damage due to corrosion is important for …

Steel reinforcement corrosion is known to adversely affect the structural integrity of buildings,
bridges and other reinforced concrete (RC) structures. It reduces the durability and service …

Infrared thermography also commonly referred as thermal imaging, or simply thermography,
is a nondestructive testing (NDT) technique that has received vast and growing attention for …
