- Abstract
Corrosion of reinforcement is the most common type of deterioration of reinforced concrete structures and bridges. Serious degradation of the mechanical properties of reinforcing bars is because of corrosion. Pitting corrosion is the main form of corrosion. The nonlinear stress–strain behavior of corroded reinforcing bars has been investigated by finite element theory. The effect of different corrosion levels on the compression behavior of bars with different slenderness ratios is presented. It was found that the softening of compressive stress takes place due to the geometrical nonlinearity associated with the lateral deformation of the compressed bars, especially after the absolute strain exceeds the yielding strain. Degradation of longitudinal reinforcement bearing capacity which was caused by pit sizes, pit locations, pit types, and slenderness ratios was analyzed. The results of this study show that slenderness ratio and pit depth significantly affect changes the buckling collapse mechanism of the bars in compression. Moreover, a unique relationship between pit size and the carrying capacity of reinforcing bars including the effect of buckling is established through various parametric analyses.
