Abstract
A comprehensive model of steel reinforced concrete corrosion process is established. The coupled effect of carbonation, chloride transport and oxygen transport are discussed in this paper. Mathematical formulae depicting mass transport in concrete structures are given to simulate the mass transport process. This paper also introduces corrosion distribution and reaction process of concrete structures.
