  Abstract

This study aims to investigate in the assessment of salt damage conditions in concrete structures under marine environment conditions. It aims also to improve the durability of new concrete bridge through applying the life prediction method of salt damaged bridges. As measuring chloride contents of these bridges on the southwest coastal area, it is shown that the average amount of chloride on these surfaces close to shore is 10.5 kg/㎥. This figure is much higher than that of the Standard Specification for Concrete(1.5 kg/㎥∼2.5 kg/㎥). In contrast, it is shown the average amount of chloride on these surfaces in tide zone is 13.1 kg/㎥. Its figure is much lower than that of the Standard Specification for Concrete(20 kg/㎥). And the life of bridges is estimated about 17 years. To improve the durability for salt damage, these bridges are applied to surface treatment method which the replacement rate of furnace slag is 60%. Under this condition, it is expected to be 110 years. Consequently, it is clear that the use of slag replacement rate, surface treatment agent, and anti-corrosion agent to control chloride penetration effects of a submerge-based concrete bridge will be required.
