This lecture covers the main causes of concrete degradation, including corrosion of reinforcements due to chlorides and carbonation. It explains the mechanisms of freeze-thaw degradation and alkali-aggregate reaction, along with prevention methods and laboratory tests. The instructor discusses exposure classes, diagnosis, and repair techniques for structures affected by corrosion and degradation.
