Evaluation on Chloride Attack by Colormetric Method in Marine Concrete Structures.

When concrete structures are exposed under marine condition for a long time, the steel in concrete is corroded due to the ingression of chlorides in the seawater. Because the damages of corrosion resulting from the chloride ion are very serious, many researches have been performed. However evaluation on chloride attack of concrete structures are not fully examined, recently. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to study the applicability of colormetric method. For the purpose of this, reaction mechanism of colormetric method were investigated, and the colormetric method is applied for marine concrete structures. According to the test results, the diffusion coefficient by colormetric method is not so different to the value of chloride concentration profile test. It is confirmed that the colormetric method is useful tool for estimating the chloride of concrete structures in situ. The average chloride amount of colored parts indicates 0.9kg/$m^{3}$ per concrete unit weight.
