The Adaption of a Rapid Screening Test to Rank the Corrosion Behaviour of Stainless Steel Reinforcing Bars in Concrete
(University of Waterloo, 2018-08-21)The costs associated with aging reinforced concrete infrastructure in Ontario continue to rise as highway infrastructure, such as bridges, continuously deteriorate. The use of de-icing salts on these bridges in the winter ... -
Effect of Post-Rolling Surface Condition on the Corrosion Performance of UNS 32205 Stainless Steel Rebar
(University of Waterloo, 2022-04-29)During the winter season, ice accumulation on roads and sidewalks is a major problem and poses a hazard to road users. The most common method of addressing this issue is by applying de-icing salts or spraying a brine ... -
The effects of curing- and service- conditions on durability of reinforced concrete structures
(University of Waterloo, 2020-06-01)Reinforced structural concrete is a critical building block of our civil infrastructure, especially our roads and bridges. As the transportation network grows, and our current infrastructure continues to age, the social ... -
Evaluation of Early In-Place Concrete Performance Based on Test Results of Cores and Cylinders
(University of Waterloo, 2018-08-21)The evaluation of in-place concrete performance, relating to its mechanical properties, continues to remain a challenge for engineers and researchers, but is essential for determining the safety of a structure and from the ... -
Investigating the Corrosion Behaviour of Carbon Black Steel Rebar in Ordinary and Limestone Cements With and Without Blast Furnace Slag
(University of Waterloo, 2022-09-30)Over the years, strange climate patterns have evolved over the globe, raising flags for concerns on the effects of global warming. Cement production contributes to 8% of the global carbon dioxide emissions. Without regards ... -
Investigation of Parameters Effecting Concrete Core Performance for Quality Control and Assurance
(University of Waterloo, 2019-04-23)The ever-evolving concrete construction industry has required stronger concrete, faster turnarounds, and better durability. To achieve this, the concrete mixtures have changed drastically, including a large amount of ...
