Review of Nitrite Inhibitor for Protection of Rebar Corrosion
Abstract: Load bearing concrete structures need steel reinforcement (rebar) strips or rods, which are prone to attack by the corrosive environment inside the concrete due to constant ingress of moisture, pollutant gases and anions (mainly Cl-, SO4- -). One of the means of reducing such type of corrosion is the use of inhibitors. Inhibitors are water soluble but film forming on metals by their selective adsorption on the metal surface. These …

Characteristics and Comparison of Continuous Casting Machine (CCM) and Reheat Furnace (RHF) Rolled Reinforcement Bar
Abstract: Modern rolling process introduces manufacturing of reinforcement bar in combination of continuouscasting and straight rolling to avoid time and cost losses and produce fine quality reinforcement bar.Using the core heat or heat inside the raw material (generally known as billet), the rolling process iscarried out. This modernized rolling process overcomes reheating losses and cost of transportationand of course cost of reheating which were faced in previous manufacturing processes. During therolling, …

Corrosion inhibitors of steel applicable by green but toxics
Abstract: Inhibitors in detergent and alkali based chemicals are used in various media for steels. Toxicity has induced pharmaceutical compounds as better inhibitors to restrict pollutant gases emissions after reaction with alkaline inhibitors. Green in origin inhibitors are toxin free to use with detergents for inhibition of both pollutant gases and corrosion of processing machineries made of metals. Eco-friendly inhibitors have appeared for steel corrosion being embedded in concrete i.e. alkaline …

Study the Impact of Corrosive Pollutants on Building Materials Corrosion
Abstract: Reinforced concrete structures (RCS) may be made more resistant to corrosion by using fiber reinforced polymers (FRP). One of the primary concerns with reinforced concrete constructions is corrosion. It causes disintegration in building material components by interactions with salts, acids, and alkalis. Both within and outside of reinforced properties, pollutants and effluents accelerate disbanding. When bio-waste and building materials come into contact, microorganisms and macro organisms, grow and emit acid …

Degradation of Building Materials by Corrosive Pollutants
Abstract: Fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) is used for the corrosion suppression of reinforced concrete structures (RCS). One of the main issues with reinforced concrete constructions is corrosion. It interacts with acids, alkalis and salts to produce disintegration in building materials components. Pollutants and effluents speed up disbanding inside and outside reinforced structures. Bio-wastes come in contact of building materials to develop miro and macro-organism and these organisms release acid substances to …

Digital Transformation of Urban Infrastructure with the Help of AI Guardians
Abstract: The construction industry continues to face challenges related to quality control, safety protocols, and meeting project deadlines. These issues often result in significant cost overruns and project delays. Traditional inspection and site management approaches rely heavily on manual work and individual judgment. As a result, human errors can easily occur, and these methods provide only limited snapshots of site conditions over time. This paper presents a comprehensive framework that uses …

Bamboo as Reinforcement Material in Concrete Structures: A Review
Abstract: Bamboo is considered to be important building material throughout the world’s tropical and subtropical areas. It is mainly used for housing purposes in rural areas. Bamboo has high strength and low weight, and can be easily worked using simple tools. It is widely recognized as one of the most important non-timber forest resources due to the high socio-economic benefits from bamboo based products. It can replace rebar in certain concrete …

Diagnosis and Repair of Deteriorated Concrete Structures
Abstract: In India, we come across many old buildings needing major repairs or go early in to a state of dilapidation condition to make them unfit for occupation.The premature deterioration of structure is an economic burden not only on owners but also to the municipalities’ and nation as a whole. The longer life of structures enables better utilization of natural resources. Reduction in waste due to demolition enhances energy conservation. Such …

Damage Detection And Its Repair And Rehabilitation Techniques In RCC And Steel Structures Using NDT
Abstract: In the paper along with Case studies Buildings and structures are normally designed for a specified target life based on the functional and economical aspects. It is due to the fact that the assumptions are made regarding durability of material without knowing the behaviour of material completely in real environment. The various tests are to be carried out to assess the causes & extent of distress, the quality/strength of concrete …

Study on Variation of Bond using Anti Corrosive Reagents on Reinforcing Steel Bar
Abstract: Variation of bond stress with different anti corrosive reagent was determined. When bar is embedded in concrete it is corroded in course of time and corrosion products form pit or holes on the surface of reinforcing bar and reduce cross sectional area of steel and also reduce bond capacity. To protect corrosion, different anti corrosive reagent are available in the market. But the effect of bond, of reinforcing bar with …

Effect of Groundwater Quality on Concrete Structures in Greater Noida: A Case Study
Abstract: In this study, firstly selected ten different locations in the Greater Noida region; then collected the ground water samples from these locations. The present study proposes the possible effect of groundwater quality on the concrete structures. It also proposes a realistic water quality on the structures. The chemical present in groundwater generally are pH, chloride, sulphate, acidity, and alkalinity. It is proposed to consider these parameters in the present study …

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Approaches for Corrosion Prediction and Management of Steel Reinforcement in Concrete: A Systematic Review
Abstract: Load bearing concrete structures need steel reinforcement bar (rebar), which are prone to attack by the corrosive environment inside the concrete due to constant ingress of moisture, pollutant gases and anions (mainly Cl−, SO42−). In recent models for the potential life span, the causes of failure of concrete structures have been established principally due to the chloride (Cl−) ion, because of the ease in transportation of Cl− in concrete and …
