Concrete Corrosion Mapping System allows rapid assessment of concrete surfaces for the presence of or tendency for chloride-induced corrosion in reinforcing steel. Operating on the half-cell potential method, this instrument is used on bridge decks, pavement, walls, and other structures.
Reinforcing steel in concrete is normally passive to corrosion until chlorides from the environment penetrate the concrete and start a flow of electrical currents. Half-cell measurements indicate corrosion activity using a probe electrically connected to the concrete through a water-saturated sponge. A separate cable is attached to rebar in the structure, completing the electrical circuit. The potential readings correlate to steel corrosion activity in the vicinity of the probe. Readings can be plotted on paper or on the concrete itself to provide a graphic assessment of the structure. A Rebar Locator is recommended to accurately reference bar position.
