Reduction of Flexural Capacity in RC Beam Considering Corrosion
In the paper, newly invented FRP Hybrid Bar and normal steel are embedded in RC beam member, and ICM(Impressed Current Method) is adopted for corrosion acceleration. Corrosion amount level of 4.9∼7.8% are measured in normal RC member and the related reduction of flexural capacity is measured to –25.4∼-50.8%. But, durability evaluation through long-term submerged condition is required for actual utilization.
