Service Life of Corrosion Damged Reinforced
Concrete Bridge Superstructure Elements
ABSTRACT
The primary product of this effort was the development of a manual titled “Manual on Service
Life Prediction of Corrosion-Damaged Reinforced Concrete Bridge Superstructure Elements.”
This manual provides a protocol for assessing the condition of reinforced concrete bridge
superstructure elements subjected to corrosion-induced deterioration, predicting the remaining
service life of such elements using the developed service life model, and quantifying service life
extension for such elements expected from alternative maintenance and repair options. This
report documents the data utilized in the development and validation of the service life model
presented in the manual.
