This lecture discusses the impact of chloride ingress on concrete structures, focusing on the causes and consequences of this issue. It covers topics such as the importance of chloride ingress, chemical and physical binding mechanisms, reactive transport processes, and factors influencing chloride penetration. The instructor also explores the significance of pore structure, diffusion coefficient, porosity, tortuosity, saturation, and binding capacities of different compounds in the corrosion process.
