In this informative report, the performance of galvanized steel reinforcement in concrete bridge decks is evaluated. Seven bridge decks were subjected to highly corrosive environments and were tested for durability. With five methods of evaluation, this study is a great resource for achieving further knowledge on the performance of galvanized reinforcement steel in concrete.
