An Experimental Study on the Penetration of Chloride Ions to Concrete Subjected to Wetting and Drying Conditions

건습반복을 받는 콘크리트의 염소이온 침투에 관한 실험적 연구

This paper presents the experimental results on the penetration of chloride. ions to ordinary portland cement concrete which is subjected to 2 different artificial environments; consecutive digestion, wetting at $3\%$ NaCl for 1 day and then drying at $40^{\circ}C$ oven for 4 days. The water-cement ratio was $35\%,\;45\%,\;55\%$. Test results showed that the intrusion depth and concentration of chloride ions penetrated into concrete in repeated wetting-drying environments were respectively deeper and higher than those of consecutive digestion environment. The penetration of chloride ions deeply depend on the effect of water to cement ratio.
