Concrete in Marine Environment
Also Known As:
ACI SP-109:1988 is a standard that provides information and guidance on various aspects related to concrete in marine environments. It covers topics such as the durability of concrete containing supplementary cementing materials, the corrosion of reinforced concrete in marine environments, and the repair, design, and construction of concrete structures in marine environments.
The standard includes 32 papers that offer valuable insights and knowledge for engineers involved in building new concrete structures or repairing existing ones in marine environments. Some of the specific topics covered in the papers include the assessment of corrosion in marine concrete, the behavior of concrete beams and columns in corrosive marine environments, the durability of steel reinforcement in marine environments, the effectiveness of surface coatings on concrete durability, and the rehabilitation of concrete navigation structures.
The standard also addresses other important subjects such as the deterioration and repair of marine concrete structures, the use of steel fiber reinforced concrete jackets for repairing concrete piles, the evaluation and repair of concrete navigation structures, and the durability of concrete in ice-resisting walls. It also includes case studies and examples from real-world projects, offering practical insights into the design, construction, and maintenance of concrete structures in marine environments.
