Single-parameter concrete carbonation model for varying environmental exposure conditions (2024)
Journal Article

Carbonation-induced reinforced steel concrete corrosion is a prominent concern related to engineering design and maintenance. The Durability Index (DI) approach was developed in South Africa to address this concern and enhance the durability performa...

Influence of drying rate on carbonation of concrete with supplementary cementitious materials (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The relative humidity (RH) in concrete pores has a major influence on the rate of carbonation of concrete.
Since carbonation is a reaction-diffusion process, the favourable moisture condition for carbonation is in
the range of 50-70% RH. At higher... Read More about Influence of drying rate on carbonation of concrete with supplementary cementitious materials.
