Corrosion of reinforcement is one of the major causes of pre-mature deterioration of reinforced concrete structures. In a tropical country like the Philippines, the cyclic wetting and drying climatic condition favors corrosion induced by carbonation. The half-cell potential (HCP) technique is univer...
