This guideline is intended to provide information on electrochemical techniques used to mitigate the corrosion of steel in atmospherically exposed concrete structures. The information presented is based on testing and the experience of owners, engineers, contractors, and suppliers. This guideline includes information on impressed current and galvanic cathodic protection, electrochemical chloride extraction, and realkalization.

Provides information and guidance for the selection, evaluation, and use of surface applied corrosion inhibitors (SACI) for corrosion mitigation and supplement sound judgement by engineers, consultants, or others specializing in the repair of reinforced concrete structures experiencing corrosion induced damage. Understanding the existing concrete conditions and corrosion levels in the structure, the function and limitations of SACI materials, requirements for proper application and quality assurance/control during application, and evaluation and monitoring the performance are addressed.

In this presentation, we will address the effect that corrosion has on our concrete infrastructure, including buildings, bridges, sea walls, cooling towers, docks, and many other reinforced concrete structures.
