Amry Dasar, Hidenori Hamada, Yasutaka Sagawa, Daisuke Yamamoto, Deterioration progress and performance reduction of 40-year-old reinforced concrete beams in natural corrosion environments, Construction and Building Materials, 10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2017.05.162, 149, 690-704, 2017.09, Deterioration progress and performance reduction were experimentally evaluated in 40-year-old corroded reinforced concrete (RC) beams. The corrosion process was natural, without acceleration by current application, admixture inclusion, or exposure to an artificial chloride environment. The mechanical performance of the beams was evaluated through a four-point bending test. The corroded steel reinforcing bars were extracted for corrosion evaluation and tensile testing. A good correlation was established between crack width and cross-section loss, as well as between cross-section loss and ultimate capacity loss. Furthermore, the relationship between deterioration progress and performance degradation with the exposure period for each deterioration stage was elucidated..

Two methods for detecting for ASR reactivity were used; RILEM AAR-4 and JASS 5N, and the latter one is of which authors revised few points. As the results, different performances of andesite depending on the size and the different required amounts of fly ash suppressing ASR depending on the mixture proportion were well demonstrated by CPT that is difficult for mortar bar test. As a curing method to avoid alkali leaching, wrapping with wet paper showed much less leaching than curing in a sealed box. From the viewpoint of easiness of operation, small size 75 × 75 × 250 mm is suitable than large size 100 × 100 × 400 mm..
