... 209 A p p e n d i x e Background Delaying the onset of corrosion is one of the most important factors determining the service life of a reinforced concrete structure. Corrosion-resistant structures can be achieved by preventing salt from penetrating to the level of the reinforcing steel, by using corrosion-resistant reinforcement, or by using both of these techniques simultaneously.
From page 210...
... 210 structures are electrochemical chloride extraction (ECE) and realkalization.

... 219 the summary of labels given to each specimen. Five variables were considered for testing, and three identical specimens for each variable were made to provide statistical significance.
From page 220...
... 220 specimens that exceeded the -0.20-V limit. The three specimens were from three groups with black bars with values between -0.20 and -0.30 V, indicating that corrosion activity was uncertain.
