By T. Miyagawa and T. Ueda
Concrete Journal, Vol.38, No.3, Mar. 2000
- Synopsis
- Desalination and realkalization were developed as the electrochemical repair methods for concrete structures deteriorated by chloride corrosion of reinforcing steel or carbonation of concrete. Recently, these techniques are applied to actual structures. This paper describes not only state of the art of researches and trials on desalination and realkalization but also importance of the electrochemical repair methods in the future maintenance program system.
- Keywords:
- desalination, realkalization, electrochemical repair methods, select system of repair methods
