dc.description.abstractStructural engineers and asset managers rely on measurable parameters developed by researchers to predict residual load-bearing capacities of corroding in-service RC structures and to assess repair-effectiveness. Laboratory research that was used to develop these measurable parameters varied between researchers and in most cases, did not represent in-service conditions. As a result, they found different relations between measurable and non-measurable parameters which are unsafe and/or engineers find difficult to apply to in-service structures. A holistic research that emulates in-service conditions was therefore developed. Parameters that were looked at were corrosion crack widths and longitudinal strains together with their derivatives.en_ZA
