CORROSION-DEGRADATION OF SOIL REINFORCEMENTS FOR MECHANICALLY STABILIZED EARTH WALLS AND REINFORCED SLOPES (2009)

This manual provides criteria for evaluating corrosion losses when using coated or uncoated steel reinforcements, and for determining aging and installation damage losses when using geosynthetic reinforcements. Monitoring methods for in-situ corrosion rates for steel reinforcements are evaluated and remote methods using electrochemical methods are recommended. Monitoring methods for determinations of in-situ aging of geosynthetics are evaluated and protocols for implementation are recommended.
