Corrosion of Rebars can occur in non-carbonated concrete due to the presence of chlorides. This type of corrosion is called chloride corrosion. The presence of chlorides is due either to being added to the concrete mixture or to its presence in aggregates or mixing water, or it may be due to its infiltration from an…
Nanotechnology in Construction Industry The increased amount of construction and the limitation of the resources and consumable materials are the elements that have caused a remarkable increase in the demand for new materials in the construction industry. One of the great new technologies in the current century is nanotechnology, which can be used to meet…
Advantages of Crystalline Permeable Materials Concrete is the most applied important material in the construction of various types of structures and superstructures, But it has some weaknesses due to its nature and content structure in spite of its tenaciousness. These weaknesses make concrete vulnerable, particularly to the water and chemicals intrusion as well as changes…
