In civil engineering construction, we often face this issue of corrosion/rust in reinforcement steel while casting RCC structures due to weather condition. Is this enhance the bonding of steel with the concrete??.. How much rust by volume allowed for casting??.. How can we measure it??.. Can any one brief in detail as per standards/code??
RUST is caused by the reaction of air (O2) and moisture (H2O), and it is a common and natural phenomenon for most steel products. It Shall be Cause of Concern or rejection of rebars as per BIS 1786-2008.
