Durability evaluations to assess the deterioration of reinforced concrete structures In the present have been considered only individual deterioration factors such as salt damage and carbonation, Also, indoor accelerated experiments have not been able to realize the combined deterioration factors that actually affect real concrete structures So, to establish the proper maintenance and rehabilitation methods of reinforced concrete structures that are subject to combined deterioration, a systematic study on combined deterioration is necessary
This study is earned out to compare individual deterioration test with combined deterioration test and to Investigate the effect of the permeation of deterioration factors such as CO₂ and chloride ion on the deterioration properties of concrete under the combined deterioration environments
It is concluded that concrete under the combined deterioration environments received damage more than concrete under the individual deterioration environments and invasion resistivity of non-coated concrete is lower than invasion resistivity of coated concrete. Therefore, from now on, maintenance administration techniques that consider combined deterioration Will be needed to solve this Issue
