Many reinforced concrete structures susceptible to corrosion damage are subjected to externally applied loads, causing cracking. These cracks increase the permeability of the material, accelerating the ingress of corrosion-inducing deleterious agents. In this paper, the effect of multiple microcracking and macrocrack formation on corrosion initiation was investigated. A hybrid fiber-reinforced concrete (HyFRC), which forms ductile, distributed microcracking prior to dominant crack localization due to multiple tiers of fiber reinforcement, is being studied for its performance against corrosion damage. The effect of matrix cracking on corrosion initiation was studied with beam specimens preloaded in flexure prior to long-term corrosion exposure. Reinforced HyFRC composites were found to have a delayed corrosion initiation response due to reductions in crack widths and suppression of splitting cracks, compared to conventional reinforced concrete. The influence of microcracks on corrosion is studied using X-ray micro-computed tomography (μCT) on reinforced fiber-reinforced cementitious composites and reinforced mortar preloaded in tension.

In order to investigate the difference of current toughness index standards for fiber reinforced concrete, two main groups of specimens were made to take bending toughness test with the requirements of corresponded standards, loading methods and loading speeds, which are ASTM C1018 in America, ACI 544 and JSCE G552 in Japan. United with software Origin, the load-deflection curves gathered from bending test was calculated with relative standards. The results show that the calculated toughness index value with ASTM C1018-98 in America is more accurate with three grades but the requested deflection of testing is much longer than others while ACI 544 and JSCE G552 in Japan are quite the contrary.

Concrete structure will be corroded under acid rain scouring and soaking for a long time, which has a great influence on its durability life. In order to further study the damage characteristics of fiber reinforced concrete under acid rain erosion, the formation mechanism of acid rain and its influence on the corrosion and deterioration of concrete and fiber materials were analyzed in this paper. Taking basalt fiber concrete as an example, the characteristics such as porosity, compressive strength and mechanical indexes were studied and analyzed. Moreover, the reasons for the optimal fiber content was briefly analyzed. The results show that the inner structure of basalt concrete mixed with 0.1% fiber was the most stable and the corrosion resistance was the most satisfying.This conclusion has certain reference significance for the corrosion damage research of fiber reinforced concrete.
