Do different corrosion problems require different rehabilitation strategies?
Yes, just as different cancers require different treatments, different corrosion problems require different corrosion protection solutions. For example: • A cathodic protection system would be needed to stop corrosion if a balcony slab contained admixed chloride ions and exhibited a high level of concrete damage. • An element with insufficient concrete cover over the steel and carbonation of the concrete may require increasing the cover by placement of an overlay and/or coating of the reinforcement. • If damage is limited to cracking and corrosion of steel is occurring in cracked areas only, simple sealing of the cracks may be the best solution.
