| Abstract: | A strong interest for the durability of reinforced concrete structures currently exists in industry and research [1]. Against the background of immense costs for maintaining reinforced concrete structures and repairing damage caused by corroding reinforcement steel, this interest lead to a German joint research project. The aim of this network‐based (www.bam.de/dfg537.htm) research group is, to deliver the basic knowledge of the corrosion propagation and to make a probabilistic tool available for engineers so that a complete design for durability, concerning reinforcement corrosion, will be possible. |
