Electrochemical techniques of the corrosion measurements of reinforcin
g steel in concrete have been evaluated. These techniques include half
-cell potential-measurements, impressed voltage method, impressed curr
ent method and potentiostatic polarization technique. The results of c
orrosion behaviour of the steel in both 5%NaCl and 5%MgSO4 show that e
ach electrochemical technique provides some information about the cond
ition of the steel bar or the corrosivity of the environment being eva
luated, yet none provides a complete data regarding the corrosion resi
stance of reinforcing steel in aggressive media.
