The assessment of the service life of concrete structures using the durability design approach is widely accepted nowadays. It is really encouraged that a simulation model can resemble the real performance of concrete during the service life. This paper investigates the concrete carbonation through probabilistic analysis. Data regarding Indonesian construction practice were taken from Indonesian National Standard (SNI). Meanwhile, data related to Indonesian weather condition for instance humidity and temperature are taken from local Meteorological, Climatological, and Geophysical Agency from 2004 until 2016. Hopefully the results can be a starting point for durability of concrete research in Indonesia.

Service Life Modelling

The paper presents an overview of current knowledge and progress in service life design and modelling of concrete structures, taking an international view but also giving local examples from South Africa. It raises the question of why service life modelling is needed, and indicates that modern demands for longevity, durability, and sustainability of concrete structures cannot be fulfilled without service life modelling. It addresses the current approaches to durability design and specification and concludes that a move to performance-based approaches is imperative if progress is to be made. Examples from international experience are cited to illustrate progress that has been made. Lastly, the paper discusses ways of moving forward, recognizing that the philosophical bases are already firmly in place in the form of general code formulations, but these need to be converted into useful approaches.

Prediction Approach

This study proposes a probability-based carbonation prediction approach for successful monitoring of deteriorating concrete structures. Over the last several decades, a number of researchers have studied the concrete carbonation prediction to estimate the long-term performance of carbonated concrete structures. Recently, probability-based durability analyses have been introduced to precisely estimate the carbonation of concrete structures. Since the carbonation of concrete structures, however, can be affected by material compositions as well as various environmental conditions, it is still a challenge to predict concrete carbonation in the field. In this study, the Fick’s first law and a Bayes’ theorem-based carbonation prediction approach is newly proposed using on-site data, which were obtained over 19 years. In particular, the effects of design parameters such as diffusion coefficient, concentration, absorption quantity of CO2, and the degree of hydration have been thoroughly considered in this study. The proposed probabilistic approach has shown a reliable prediction of concrete carbonation and remaining service life.

Corrosion Of Steel

The monograph is devoted to the prediction of the longevity of reinforced concrete structures, the destruction of which is associated with corrosion of steel reinforcement caused by chloride aggression or concrete carbonation. On the basis of a comprehensive analysis of models for calculating the service life of structures and experimental data, preference is given to the mathematical model Dura Crete. Life cycles for the main degradation processes in concrete and reinforcement, periods of initiation and propagation of corrosion are considered. Particular attention is paid to the influence of environmental factors and the quality of concrete on the kinetics of chloride penetration and movement of the carbonization front. Formulated limit state design reinforced concrete durability in chloride attacks and carbonation. The basic provisions of the method of calculating the durability of reinforced concrete structures, based on the use of the reliability coefficient for the service life. The practical assessment of service life of reinforced concrete elements taking into account stochastic processes in concrete and reinforcement is made. Verification of the model reliability is performed. For all those interested in the issues of building materials and processes occurring in them.

Durability Design

In order to supply basic principles for durability design of concrete structures, the corrosion mechanism of concrete structures under common atmospheric environment was analyzed. The climatic condition of temperature (T) and relative humidity (RH) which has important impacts on concrete carbonation, was chosen as main factors to grade. On the basis of partition for the influence degrees of temperature and relative humidity on the concrete carbonation, the environmental action in concrete structures was classified with a comprehensive evaluation method. The results show that both temperature and relative humidity can be partitioned into five grades. The concrete carbonation is classified into five grades according to influencing factors of temperature and relative humidity to concrete carbonation levels. The carbonation depth which is calculated with the average of positive temperature and relative humidity is taken as the control index of classification.
