Abstract
Stainless steel rebars is used to lengthen the service life of structures in aggressive media. Corrosion resistance was studied in five grades of mortar-embedded stainless steel: EN 1.4307, EN 1.4404, EN 1.4482, EN 1.4362 and EN 1.4462. A modified accelerated chloride attack was applied to prevent steel rebar polarisation and artificial re-passivation. The critical chloride concentration was determined. Based on corrosion rate, service life was calculated for a given exposure at two probability levels.
