Concrete has a high performance corrosion resistance, with the choice of the thickness of the active alkali aggregate,grain shape structured,well-graded,small porosity. Superfine cement with mineral powder instead of 30% to 50%, mineral superfine powder participate hydration, solve concrete interface structure Ca (OH)2enrichment and directional crystallization problems, improve the coagulation. The internal structure of the soil, improving the strength and density of concrete. Meanwhile ultra-fine powder mixed with minerals, reducing the C3A content in the powder and the concrete in the late ettringite hazards greatly. Improve the corrosion resistance of concrete, with also improve the internal structure of concrete and the strength of concrete, compactness and corrosion resistance. Composite type superplasticizer, reducing water consumption unilateral concrete, air-entraining agent is added to improve the density of concrete, the concrete has good impermeability and frost resistance. On the use of ordinary portland cement, it gets high performance, by the ratio test, developed the corrosion and frost resistance of concrete for the chloride, sulfate alone or jointly under the action of the environment concrete structures in corrosive environments, such as coastal areas, inland lakes, underground sewage or chemical zones, there are concrete structure durability requirements, with good economic and promotional value.

In many applications, even high-performance alloys have to be covered with protective coatings, providing higher corrosion and oxidation resistance, as compared to the alloy itself. This study investigates the feasibility to apply boron coatings on P91 steel by pack cementation process, to increase the steel durability in oxidative and corrosive environments, as well as its mechanical strength. Micro-indentation and the coating impact test were used to characterize the hardness and fatigue properties of the film respectively. The coating corrosion resistance versus the one of the uncoated P91 steel was tested in a salt spray chamber. The coating performance was characterized by optical and scanning electron microscopy to check the consistency of the coated and uncoated surfaces and the oxidation extend. The results show an increased film strength, good fatigue performance and adequate corrosion resistance.

It analyzed the reasons for the early cracks in high-performance concrete, and prepared overall program to improve the mechanical properties and the durability of the HPC. It studied on cracking control of HPC at early age and improvement of impermeability by mixing ratio test. The result showed that , it get better inhibition on the early cracks by reasonable adjustment to the water-binder ratio, fly ash and mineral fine powder dosage with saturated aggregates and the right amount of expansion agent, and it also provided high-performance concrete for different performance with a mixture ratio test methods.

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.
