Validation model for service life prediction of concrete structures
نویسندگان
چکیده
Most bridges in the highways of the Netherlands are designed to last 80 years. In those 80 years only minor damage should be repaired. To determine the repair strategy of these minor damages the so-called Lifetime Extending Maintenance model can be used. This model is a condition model, which has been used for many materials like paint on steel [1]. In this paper we will show an application of this model with which the repair strategy of concrete structures has been validated.

Chloride ion ingress is one of the major problems that affect the durability of reinforced concrete structures such as bridge decks, concrete pavements, and other structures exposed to harsh saline environments. Therefore, durability based design of concrete structures in marine areas has gained great significance in recent decades and various mathematical models for estimating the service life...
متن کاملPrediction of Service Life in Concrete Structures based on Diffusion Model in a Marine Environment using Mesh Free, FEM and FDM Approaches
Chloride-induced corrosion is a key factor in the premature corrosion of concrete structures exposed to a marine environment. Fick's second law of diffusion is the dominant equation to model diffusion of chloride ions. This equation is traditionally solved by Finite Element Method (FEM) and Finite Difference Method (FDM). Although these methods are robust and efficient, they may face some numer...
