Microbiological Influenced Corrosion Steel bridge Piles Marine Environment INTRODUCTION Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) is an important degradation mechanism for materials in a wide variety of industries. Although MIC has not traditionally been a major durability concern for Florida coastal...

...Abstract This study aims to evaluate the correlation between crack width and apparent corrosion rate in reinforced concrete specimens exposed to a tropical marine environment of very high aggressiveness. Specimens from DURACON project (prismatic 15x15x60 cm), with 0.65 and 0.45 w/c ratios were...

... in marine environments. In Nordic countries the use of 3 to 5 % of silica fume is mandatory for the case of severe environment. Also, the use of fly ash to reduce chloride ion ingress is common in concrete facilities under marine exposure. However, pozzolanic materials are more prone to suffer from lack...
