Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and an arrangement for assessing reinforced steel concrete components with respect to the corrosion and passivation of the reinforcement, taking into account the moisture.
  • Metal and especially steel corrosion is a common problem that causes widespread damage and causes indirect and direct costs in all industrial sectors. This applies in particular to the field of reinforcement corrosion in reinforced concrete construction.
  • the reinforcing steel is usually protected or passivated by a surrounding passivation layer against corrosion.
  • This passivation layer is formed by the high alkalinity of the pore solution as a very thin but virtually non-porous layer around the rebar.
  • the passivation layer prevents or inhibits the penetration of oxidizing ions down to the rebar.
  • the passivation of this passivation layer is reduced and the passivation layer finally destroyed. As a result, the corrosion protection for the reinforcing steel is lost.
  • electrochemical methods such as the electrochemical potential measuring method, in which an electrical voltage is measured between a contacted internal reinforcing steel and the outside surface of a steel-weighted concrete component, which in the present corrosion typically has more negative values than if passivation of the contacted reinforcing steel, but with a large gray area and significant uncertainty.
  • the document US 2012/0012470 A1 describes an arrangement with a probe, which is provided for scanning a surface of a concrete component.
  • the arrangement includes a function generator for feeding a current into the concrete component via the probe.
  • the function generator is designed as a reference for a potential measurement on a reinforcing steel in the concrete component.
  • the arrangement may further comprise a current measuring device for measuring the current through the probe.
  • Document CH 708 249 A2 describes a method for determining the passivating properties of a metal surface in an electrolyte. The method is based on the rectification of an alternating current which passes through the metal surface into the electrolyte. The sign as well as the magnitude of the change in the DC voltage and the DC current between the metal surface and an electrode allow a conclusion on the presence of passivating conditions and thus on the corrosion behavior.
  • the document GB 2 224 852 A describes an apparatus and a method for monitoring the corrosion rate in a concrete component with an enclosed reinforcement material.

  • the voltage difference between see one of the first annular surface oppositely disposed second annular surface, which is also related to a water-absorbing material, and the reinforcing material is determined.
  • the disclosure DE000002335419 AI describes a method and an apparatus for measuring the corrosion or corrosion of steel reinforcements in concrete parts such as walls, ceilings and the like, wherein in a measuring range between the steel reinforcement and the surface of the concrete part by means of a patch on the surface of the concrete part, as Cathode serving electrode and a power supply connected directly to the Stahlarm ist a galvanic cell is constructed and loaded with a constant DC current, wherein the Stahlarm réelle is connected as an anode, and the potential profile of the steel reinforcement is registered relative to a reference electrode over a short time before the start of the current period ,

On the outer surface of an enclosing adjusting electrode is arranged with associated feedback. By means of a circuit, the current fed into the electrodes is controlled so that the same current density acts on the counter electrode and on the adjusting electrode.
  • the document AT 71 224 B describes a method for continuous or discrete-time monitoring of the effectiveness of repairs on reinforced concrete components, which have been damaged by corrosion of the reinforcement material.
  • a series of spot measurements of the electrical potential of the reinforcement material relative to a first reference electrode is detected by moving the first reference electrode on the surface of the concrete component.
  • a second reference electrode of lead is implanted in the concrete mass below a surface zone. It is the electric potential of the second Re- determined reference electrode against the reinforcing material and observed the time course.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide a method for assessing the corrosion and the passivation capacity of a passivation layer on the reinforcement in reinforced concrete, with a reliable detection of active corrosion, passive corrosion in insufficient moisture or incipient corrosion at sufficient humidity and characterization current and future passivation behavior of the reinforcement.
  • the invention is further based on the object of specifying a method for assessing the moisture content of a steel-reinforced concrete component in order to assess the actual progress of ions.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide an arrangement for carrying out such methods.
  • an inert measuring electrode is arranged on the surface of the reinforced concrete component.
  • an electrically conductive connection to the reinforcing steel is produced, via which an electrical test voltage is fed.
  • the reinforcement connection may be introduced through a contact opening in the outer concrete layer between the reinforcing steel and the surface of the reinforced concrete component. It is possible to have such a contact opening by drilling, whipping or other known from the prior art Abtrags vide in the reinforced concrete component contribute.
  • reinforced concrete components can be produced, in which such a contact opening is already provided.
  • a corrosion measurement signal is measured as the voltage between the measuring electrode and the rebar connection contacting the reinforcing steel.
  • the corrosion measurement signal is determined by the charges which can break through the passivation layer.
  • the number of charges transported through the passivation layer of ions is a measure of the passivation capacity of the passivation layer around the reinforcing steel.
  • the passivation layer has a number of imperfections or voids that are permeable to ions. Thereby, a large number of charges corresponding to the number of ions, for example, iron ions passing through the passivation layer are measured. With sufficient passivation capacity, however, this number of charges is very low to low.
  • a negative cathode protection voltage is applied to the measuring electrode via an ohmic series resistor, which voltage is generated by a cathode protection voltage source designed as a loadable constant voltage source. If the measuring electrode is placed on the reinforced concrete component, then a negative cathode protection current is fed in via the ohmic series resistor. As a result, the course of the corrosion measurement signal, which is generated by the charge pressure or the pressure of freely movable ions in the passivation layer around the reinforcing steel, is stabilized.
  • the cathode protection current fed into the measuring electrode via the ohmic series resistor counteracts the pressure of the freely mobile ions, in particular the iron ions dissolved from the reinforcing steel by the anodic partial process of corrosion.
  • the cathode protection current fed into the measuring electrode is thus an essential basis for the detection tion of the corrosion measurement signal as well as all other parameters of the method.
  • an asymptotically decaying corrosion measurement signal is measured, which has a maximum initial value at the beginning of the feed-in of the cathode protection current.
  • the reinforcing steel with the surrounding passivation layer acts like an electrode of an electrolytic capacitor.
  • the asymptotically evanescent corrosion measurement signal is caused by the charging process on this electrolytic capacitor under the influence of the injected cathodic protection current, the maximum initial value being determined by the properties of the electrolytic capacitor electrode and the dielectric material around the reinforcing steel.
  • the initial value of the corrosion measurement signal may be compared to at least one predetermined limit to determine the passivation capability of the passivation layer.
  • an initial value of the corrosion measurement signal above a predetermined threshold may be evaluated as sufficient passivation capability.
  • gradations can be made in the evaluation of the passivation capacity.
  • a predetermined threshold of zero millivolts is used. If the initial value of the corrosion measurement signal is above this preferred limit, the corrosion state is determined as active corrosion and / or defective passivation. If the initial value of the corrosion measurement signal is below this preferred limit, no active corrosion and / or sufficient passivation is determined.
  • the magnitude of the drop in the corrosion measurement signal is determined by the passivation capability of the passivation layer.
  • a measure of the steepness of the drop of the corrosion measurement signal for example the drop or the negative rise of a straight line by the initial value and a second value of the corrosive onsmesssignals at a predetermined time interval from the initial value or the time constant of a fitted exponential decay, are used for the evaluation of Passivitationshacks the passivation layer.
  • the asymptotic drop of the corrosion measurement signal is determined by the ohmic series resistor, via which the cathode protection current is fed into the electrode.
  • This series resistor can be chosen differently depending on the measurement task.
  • a moisture measurement signal is measured which determines the moisture in the passivation layer. Only in the case of sufficient moisture in the passivation layer are differences in the passivation capability detectable by the corrosion measurement signal. In particular, too little moisture prevents the transport of ions through the passivation layer, regardless of the actual passivation capability. As a result, such a measurement can erroneously simulate a passivation that is actually absent as a pseudopassivation measurement.
  • the corrosion measurement signal is compared with at least one predetermined limit value if the moisture measurement signal indicates at least one minimum measurement moisture detected as sufficient for a reliable measurement. In this way, a faulty determination and / or interpretation of the passivation state of the passivation layer is avoided in the case of an insufficient moisture of the passivation layer for the measurement.
  • an inadequate passivation state can be determined by the corrosion measurement signal assuming a positive maximum initial value when the cathode protection current is switched on and / or when the measurement electrode is placed on it, and then decaying in the manner of a decaying exponential function.
  • An insufficient passivation state or the presence of corrosion of the reinforcing steel can alternatively or supportively also be determined by evaluating the time course of the corrosion measurement signal. examples For example, the time period during which the corrosion measurement signal is positive can be determined, and / or the time constant of the decaying exponential function can be estimated and / or the rise or fall of the corrosion measurement signal can be determined.
  • a more accurate and reliable measurement of the corrosion state, the passivation state and the expected course of corrosion in a reinforced concrete component is thus possible.
  • the cathode protection current fed into the measuring electrode is measured as a protective current measuring signal.
  • This cathode protection current is a measure of the external electron input required to prevent the partial processes of corrosion of the reinforcing steel.
  • the required current intensity for a cathode protection current can be determined in an advantageous manner, which continuously improves or maintains the passivation state of a reinforced concrete component affected or threatened by corrosion. It can also be determined whether a cathodic protection current can still be used meaningfully or whether other measures such. B. Repair are needed.

  • the passivation layer causes a change in the test voltage, in particular a reduction in the amplitude, from the viewpoint of moisture.
  • the reduced by the passage through the passivation layer amplitude of the test voltage is also detected as a test signal. The higher the humidity of the passivation layer, the less the
  • a perfectly dry passivation layer can be considered approximately insulating and alters the test signal. High humidity results in a test signal that is at or slightly above 400 millivolts.
  • a water-proof passivation layer can be considered as a good electrolytic conductor, thus minimizing the amplitude of the test voltage, finding a test signal that is at or slightly below the upper amplitude value of the test voltage of 400 millivolts.
  • a passivation layer with a sufficient moisture for the readability of the corrosion measurement signal has a
  • Test signal that is above 385 millivolts and at or below 400 millivolts.

Analogously, other predetermined test signal threshold values for other upper voltage values of legal be determined corner-shaped test voltages. It should be noted that above a maximum test voltage, an electrical breakdown of the passivation layer can occur comparable to the electrical breakdown at a reverse-biased diode.
