Includes case histories from studies of bridge decks exposed to deicing salts and of dock, wharf and jetty sections exposed to seawater, further demonstrating the value of galvenized reinforcement. In addition to the subject of reinforcing bar, the use of galvanized wire in prestressed concrete is also described, along with laboratory testing and monitoring of stray current corrosion of prestressed concrete, among other studies.
