Corrosion Assessment in Rebars of RC Structures Using PZT patches
Objective:
This simulation experiment is based on experimental data measured during actual accelerated corrosion tests carried out on reinforced concrete (RC) structures (bare rebar).
Apparatus Used:
1. An empty tank
2. Brine solution
3. Copper rod as cathode
4. Bare rebar as anode
5. PZT patch
6. Power supply
7. Bare rebar holder
8. Copper rod holder
