Electrochemical realkalization and chloride extraction treatments for reinforced concrete - Part 1: Realkalization; German version EN 14038-1:2016
Elektrochemische Realkalisierung und Chloridextraktionsbehandlungen für Stahlbeton - Teil 1: Realkalisierung; Deutsche Fassung EN 14038-1:2016
Overview
This European Standard specifies a procedure for carrying out impressed current electrochemical realkalization (ER) of carbonated reinforced concrete in existing structures. It is applicable to atmospherically exposed parts of structures with ordinary reinforcement embedded in concrete. This European Standard does not apply to concrete containing prestressing steel which can suffer hydrogen embrittlement during realkalization, or to concrete containing epoxy-coated or galvanized reinforcement, or if chloride contamination is contributing to reinforcement corrosion. This document (EN 14038-1:2016) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 219 "Cathodic protection", the secretariat of which is held by BSI. NA 062-01-78 AA "Kathodischer Korrosionsschutz", Spiegelausschuss zu CEN/TC 219 ("Cathodic protection", mirror committee to CEN/TC 219) at DIN Standards Committee Materials Testing (NMP) is responsible for the German collaboration.
