Chapter 1Introduction

Beushausen, H.

Pages: 1 –7

[For the design of concrete structures, durability and service life prediction have increasingly gained importance in recent years. This comes as a result of the inadequate durability performance of many reinforced concrete structures built in the past decades, which places enormous strain on...
LitStream

Chapter 2Durability of Reinforced Concrete Structures and Penetrability

Nilsson, L.-O.; Kamali-Bernard, S.; Santhanam, M.

Pages: 9 –17

[In this chapter a brief overview is given on the mechanisms causing reinforcement corrosion, on the concrete properties relating to the ingress of aggressive agents (penetrability and transport properties) and on the principles for service life design and deterioration models.]
LitStream

Chapter 3Prescriptive Durability Specifications

Torrent, R.; d’Andréa, R.; Gonçalves, A.; Jacobs, F.; Imamoto, K.; Kanellopoulos, A.; Khrapko, M.; Monteiro, A. V.; Nanukuttan, S. V.

Pages: 19 –49

[A specification that defines required results, criteria by which performance will be judged, and methods of evaluation, without requirements for how the results are to be obtained.]
LitStream

Chapter 4Test Methods for Concrete Durability Indicators

Bjegović, D.; Serdar, M.; Oslaković, I. S.; Jacobs, F.; Beushausen, H.; Andrade, C.; Monteiro, A. V.; Paulini, P.; Nanukuttan, S.

Pages: 51 –105

[Durability of concrete structures is primarily dependent on the environmental influences, i.e. the penetration of aggressive substances in the structural element from the environment. Penetrability is an important durability indicator of concrete and by specifying different classes of...

Chapter 5Principles of the Performance-Based Approach for Concrete Durability

Beushausen, H.; Alexander, M. G.; Basheer, M.; Baroghel-Bouny, V.; d’Andréa, R.; Gonçalves, A.; Gulikers, J.; Jacobs, F.; Khrapko, M.; Monteiro, A. V.; Nanukuttan, S. V.; Otieno, M.; Polder, R.; Torrent, R.

Pages: 107 –131

[In general, design approaches for durability can be divided into prescriptive design concepts and performance-based design concepts.]
LitStream

Chapter 6Statistical Procedures for Performance-Based Specification and Testing

Stahel, W. A.; Moro, F.; Fernandez Luco, L.

Pages: 133 –178

[Durability specification and control of concrete should be based on performance measures. These show intrinsic spatial variability, and measurements are always subject to error. Specifications should take these variations into account by relying on statistical methods, both for estimating “true...
LitStream

Chapter 7Responsibilities

Hooton, R. D.; Khrapko, M.; Otieno, M.; Ismail, M. A.

Pages: 179 –196

[In a performance-based specification approach, concrete needs to be specified in terms of the required physical and durability performance. The specification should provide a system for the owner/specifier, contractor and supplier/producer to assess and maintain a quality concrete. The approach...
LitStream

Chapter 8Application Examples of Performance-Based Specification and Quality Control

Beushausen, H.; Alexander, M. G.; Andrade, C.; Basheer, M.; Baroghel-Bouny, V.; Corbett, D.; d’Andréa, R.; Gonçalves, A.; Gulikers, J.; Jacobs, F.; Monteiro, A. V.; Nanukuttan, S. V.; Otieno, M.; Polder, R.; Torrent, R.

Pages: 197 –266

[This chapter presents an overview on several performance-based approaches for concrete durability specification and conformity assessment of the as-built structure.]
LitStream

Chapter 9Basis for the Statistical Evaluation of Measured Cover Depths in Reinforced Concrete Structures

Monteiro, A. V.; Gonçalves, A.; Gulikers, J.; Jacobs, F.

Pages: 267 –299

[It is widely recognized that failure to comply of the concrete cover depth with the specifications is one of the main causes of premature deterioration of reinforced concrete structures. However, the great majority of technical standards and codes that deal with durability design and control of...

Chapter 10Venlo Application Testing (Summary)

Fernández Luco, L.; Beushausen, H.; Jacobs, F.; Serdar, M.

Pages: 301 –315

[RILEM TC 230-PSC organized, along with B|A|S Research & Technology, an Application Test (AT) Program at B|A|S headquarters in Venlo, the Netherlands that consisted of the application of different techniques and testing procedures, mainly non-destructively, to make conformity assessment and/or...
