The Perceptions among the Construction Industry on the Induced Chloride Corrosion for Reinforced Concrete Structure in Sarawak

Corrosion is the main issue affecting the reinforced concrete structures, especially those built near the river and sea water. The structures constructed could be exposed to the possibility of corrosion and chemical reaction that would reduce the durability and strength of the structures. The...
