About The Seminar

India is witnessing a significant boom in the construction of many infrastructure systems (highway/railway bridges, ports/harbours, high-rise buildings, etc.). These concrete structures are designed for the service life more than 100 years. Unfortunately, many concrete structures are experiencing premature corrosion and not able to meet the design life requirements. Almost 50% of the concrete structures today experience a repair within about 10 years. About 40% of the cement produced in the country is used for repair practices. We spend about ~1 to 2 % of GDP in addressing the corrosion issues in concrete infrastructure. Therefore, we must educate our engineers on how to ensure the concrete structures are well-protected against corrosion. If we do not take adequate measures in this regard, then the future India will have to face an expensive challenge of repairing the large number of infrastructure systems that are being built now. This course is designed to help students and faculty members in civil engineering and practicing civil engineers to learn the basics of corrosion mechanisms in concrete structures and ways to protect the embedded steel from corrosion (in both existing and new structures). In particular, sufficient reading materials will be provided to enable further learning and be able to teach elective courses and practice good concrete engineering/corrosion control/construction practices. The lectures and laboratory sessions will cover the following topics with a blend of scientific principles behind, and the research- and practice-oriented viewpoints.
