CHLORIDE ION CONTENT DETERMINATION
Why test for Chloride Ion Content?
Bridges, Shipping Docks, Structures subject to salt or located near the sea, etc; are constantly subject to Chloride Ions. Such component, together with oxygen and moisture lead to the corrosion of the reinforcing steel in concrete. Once corrosión has started, there is no way back.
Chloride Ion Content Determination
With our totally on-site Chloride Content Analysis method, we can determine the probability of corrosion in the the reinforcement of the structure based on the percentage of chloride ion content at different depths of the concrete coverlayer
Our services can be used to determine the Chloride Ion Content in concrete of the following structures:
– Shipping Docks
– Bridge Decks
– Bridge Piers
– Columns
– Buildings in coastal zones
