Abstract:
One of the outstanding questions regarding use of alternative cements in concrete infrastructure systems is the corrosion potential of these systems. This study investigated a variety of commercially available alternative concrete systems, including two calcium sulfoaluminate-based systems, tracking changes in conductivity, microcell current, chloride infiltration, and initiation and propagation of corrosion through cracked and uncracked concrete and mortar specimens to provide a comparison of corrosion-related behavior between ACM and OPC systems.
