Corrosion Characteristics of Steel Rebars in Mortar After 9.5-Year Chloride Exposure

9.5 years of experimental data on the long-term corrosion behavior of steel reinforcement in chloride-exposed mortars. The dataset, authored by Raja Rizwan Hussain and shared on figshare, compares the effects of fly ash and silica fume as supplementary cementitious materials. Results include measurements of passive film stability, corrosion severity, cracking, chloride permeability, and compressive strength.

Use Cases

• Modeling long-term corrosion progression in reinforced concrete based on 9.5-year exposure data
• Comparing the durability performance of fly ash versus silica fume as cement replacements
• Analyzing the relationship between chloride permeability and corrosion initiation
• Investigating the link between compressive strength and corrosion resistance in blended cement mortars

Strengths

• Long-term experimental data spanning 9.5 years of chloride exposure
• Includes results from advanced analytical techniques confirming corrosion mechanisms
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• The dataset is small (216.4 KB), indicating a limited scope of measurements
