The concretestrengthening steel bars currently used in bridges are susceptible to corrosion, especially in the "deck," the uppermost portion of the bridge. Rebar embedded in bridgedeck concrete is ...

Press Release May 12, 2011 12 May 2011 Schoeck brings glass fibre rebar to the Middle East One of the primary causes of damage to concrete structures is the corrosion of the steel reinforcement. This ...

The concrete deterioration likely was due to corrosion of the steel reinforcement, USA Today reported, adding that corrosion leads to an expansion of the rebar, which damages the surrounding concrete.

Earlier, at around 3:17 a.m. on the 16th, a piece of reinforced concrete fell from the ceiling in the living room of this APT. The chunk measured approximately 60 cm in length and 30 cm in width ...
