A probabilistic model of the chloride-induced corrosion process is provided in this paper. Based on the Third-moment method, the uncertainty of various influence factors and the coupling effects of them are concerned. Considering the corrosion process as a statistic process, the probability of corrosion initiation at certain time can be obtained. Moreover, the effect of micro-crack in chloride ingress is taken into account, too. Due to the results of stochastic analysis, the surface chloride concentration is the most important factor that affects the corrosion probability, while the thickness of concrete cover, chloride diffusion coefficient, environmental relative humidity, critical threshold chloride concentration, micro-crack rate, water-to-cement ratio and temperature are also important factors. And the Third-moment method is proved to be reasonable in the durability assessment of corrosion-induced concrete structure. The results in this paper can be used to predict the rest life of corrosion-induced concrete structures.

In light of the requirement of mass concrete for the bearing platform of the main tower of the Beicha Main Bridge of the Xiamen-Zhangzhou Sea-spanning Bridge, and in view of the hostile environmental conditions for the project, a study was conducted on the technology of preparing high-performance marine concrete for the bearing platform of the sea-spanning bridge in order to control concrete temperatures and achieve the desired durability for the bridge. With an optimal design which features the binary admixture of fly ash and slag and an optimal concrete mix ratio, high-performance concrete with lower hydration heat and strong resistance to chloride diffusion and cracking was successfully developed for the bearing platform of the sea-spanning bridge.

Chloride ion penetration is an important parameter influencing the service life of a concrete structure, especially in aggressive environments. Severe chloride-induced corrosion of reinforced concretes has been reported in the southern part of Iran in the region of Oman Sea. In this paper, the effect of different environmental conditions of the Oman Sea on chloride penetration and mechanical properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC) and normal concrete (NC) is investigated. For this purpose, a number of prismatic specimens were exposed to various environmental conditions such as tide, submersion and atmospheric conditions. Surface chloride concentration and diffusion coefficient of SCC in these zones were calculated based on Fick’s second law, at 28, 90 and 150 days and compared with NC. Based on the values obtained in this study, relationships are proposed for concrete permeability and surface chloride of self-compacting concrete (SCC) at different ages in different aggressive environments. By determining the corrosion time based on these relations, it is observed that for a given water-to-cement ratio, the self-compacting concrete (SCC) has higher durability compared to normal concrete (NC).

The paper introduces life prediction models and existing questions of marine concrete structures exposed to chloride environment; Theory of Box-Jenkins time series prediction method is put forward to analyze the change law of chloride concentration of reinforcemnet surface of marine concrete structures along with time; Stationary test, model identification and parameter estimate are introduced; Modeling process and best model identification are discussed by means of analyzing laws of chloride concentration changing with time, and predicts using the best model. Analysis results show that the prediction model built by Box-Jenkins method has simple form and high prediction accuracy. Whats more, future chloride concentration can be well predicted by history values without determining specific values of durability parameters.This is a new method of life prediction of marine concrete structures.

Based on the durability investigation on marine concrete structures in South China, the surface chloride concentration and the critical chloride concentration inducing reinforcement corrosion were researched. The surface concentration under the marine environment in South China was analyzed by solid core tests on the harbors with different service ages, and the fluctuation range of surface concentration ranges from 0.2% to 1.1%. Through electrochemical testing and appearance investigation, the value of the critical chloride concentration in concrete components is studied, which is in the range of 0.0518% to 0.0824% by mass of concrete.
