Abstract:Carbonation affects the performance, serviceability and safety of reinforced concrete (RC) structures when they are placed in environments with important CO 2 concentrations. Since the kinetics of carbonation depends on parameters that could be affected by climate change (temperature, atmospheric CO 2 pressure and relative humidity (RH)), this study aims at quantifying the effect of climate change on the durability of RC structures subjected to carbonation risks. This work couples a carbonation finite element … Show more
