Experimental investigation of seismic behaviour of corroded RC bridge piers
Experimental investigation of seismic behaviour of corroded RC bridge piers
A summary of shaking table test campaign of three RC columns with different corrosion levels are reported. Accelerated corrosion procedure is employed to produce the desired corrosion level. This work aims to investigate the effects of chloride-induced corrosion on seismic behaviour of RC bridge piers located in a marine environment. The performance of two RC columns in this benchmark test, along with the test result of an uncorroded RC column obtained in authors’ previous work are compared. These three specimens are designed with same dimensions and reinforcement detail. All three columns are subjected to the same input ground motion. The test results of this benchmark shaking table experimental testing are analysed in terms of reinforcement corrosion rate, hysteresis characteristics, response frequency variation and time-effective stiffness monitoring.

Abstract
A summary of shaking table test campaign of three RC columns with different corrosion levels are reported. Accelerated corrosion procedure is employed to produce the desired corrosion level. This work aims to investigate the effects of chloride-induced corrosion on seismic behaviour of RC bridge piers located in a marine environment. The performance of two RC columns in this benchmark test, along with the test result of an uncorroded RC column obtained in authors’ previous work are compared. These three specimens are designed with same dimensions and reinforcement detail. All three columns are subjected to the same input ground motion. The test results of this benchmark shaking table experimental testing are analysed in terms of reinforcement corrosion rate, hysteresis characteristics, response frequency variation and time-effective stiffness monitoring.
