The durability of concrete structures can effectively be enhanced by using stainless steel rather than ordinary steel reinforcements under harsh service conditions. Because the basic mechanical properties and stress-strain relationship of stainless steel reinforcements obviously differ from those of ordinary steel reinforcements, the current design codes for reinforced concrete structures are not appropriate for stainless steel-reinforced concrete. On the basis of the research works reported in the past decades, this paper systematically summarizes and analyzes the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of stainless steel reinforcements, the properties of the bond between stainless steel reinforcements and concrete, the mechanical properties of stainless steel-reinforced concrete members, and the application of stainless steel reinforcements in practical engineering and proposes relevant problems which should be examined further. It is suggested that the design theory of stainless steel-reinforced concrete structures should be further improved to take full advantage of these structures.

In order to study the bearing capacity conditions of the reinforced concrete structure in service in the phase of using,test the mechanical properties of the bending members of reinforced concrete structures under loading and not loading conditions,and compare and analyze the relationship of load and deflection, crack, steel strain,concrete face strain under the two conditions,has got the conclusion that the bearing capacity decreased almost 12% under holding load, and analyze the effect of the bearing capacity and deformation under holding load; use ABAQUS finite element to simulate bending members of reinforced concrete structures under holding loading,and the simulation values are very close to the experimental results; indicate that finite element simulation can be carried out in prediction the service life of reinforced concrete structure in practical engineering.

The influence of reinforcing steel corrosion on the durability of reinforced concrete structures of transport structures and the degree of knowledge of this problem is considered. It is specified that the protection of reinforcing steel from corrosion is not able to completely replace the correct design and use of high-strength concrete. But it is able to extend the life of reinforced concrete structures. It is noted that corrosion of the reinforcement leads to a decrease in the structural strength due to wear and tear and by a third of the period of operation of reinforced concrete structures, as a result of which transport structures collapse. As an example of the detrimental effect of corrosion of reinforcing steel on the durability of transport structures, examples of accidents of bridges and overpasses caused by this type of corrosion are given. As a result, a conclusion is drawn on the advisability of ensuring a sufficient level of corrosion protection of reinforcing steel to achieve the required durability of reinforced concrete structures of transport structures. The types and causes of corrosion processes in reinforcing steel reinforced concrete structures are described. The compositions and technologies of anticorrosive protection are examined and analyzed. Comparison of the compositions of anticorrosive protection of reinforced concrete structures is carried out according to the following criteria: consumption, density, viability, curing temperature and the number of components of the composition. A comparison of anti-corrosion protection technologies is carried out on the basis of the following indicators: line dimensions, productivity and consumption of energy resources. A comparison is also made of the cost of using various anti-corrosion protection technologies. Based on the data obtained, the advantages and disadvantages of the considered compositions and technologies of corrosion protection are determined. As a result, the most effective and technologically advanced method of corrosion protection of steel reinforcement of reinforced concrete structures of transport structures is selected.

The calculation, modeling and experimental research of steel-concrete tubular elements made of thin-walled galvanized sheet metal and lightweight concrete have been carried out. The proposed type of structures can be used as a separate structure in the form of a column or a pillar, and one of the types of the reinforcement of a certain light structure. The basic technological and constructive requirements for manufacturing and further exploitation of structures are given. For determination of actual work’s indexes of constructions experimental research of standards are undertaken, and recommendations on adjustment of well-known calculation formulas of close constructions as for structural parameters are given. The design (modeling) was performed in MSC / Nastran software. An analysis of the proposed structures use is carried out with the corresponding conclusions.

During designing in historical object we can have a problem with historical reinforced concrete elements. Many designers, classifies this elements as low strength. They are convicted that this type of elements in historical building can be only a monument and cannot be used in this construction as an structural element. It is very important in this type of buildings to keep as many historical material as it is possible. Authors researched the literature which has been a guide in the design and execution of these elements. By comprising used algorithms and physico-mechanical properties of old materials with algorithms and materials, which are using today, we are able to estimate the strength of such elements.
