The sustainable cost effective choice for concrete infrastructure

June 2022 - The Nickel Institute published two documents about corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of stainless steel reinforcement.

Attention is given to total cost of ownership considerations when designing concrete structures. Contemporary examples of the use of stainless steel reinforcement are offered.

The text was originally prepared for a 2021 French Civil Engineering Society conference and translated into English afterwards. As engineering standards and practices may differ between continents, both a European as well as a North America oriented version are available.
