Buildings that play crucial roles, such as those used for oil and gas projects, power plants, and ports, are often located in areas exposed to aggressive environmental conditions.
Structures near the sea, in particular, require special construction materials due to the high salt content in seawater. This demands concrete materials with exceptional resistance to seawater.
Challenges of Buildings in Vulnerable Locations
One of the common issues in concrete construction in aggressive environments with high sulfate and chloride content is damage to structures and corrosion of the steel reinforcement. This occurs because ordinary concrete cannot withstand or protect the steel reinforcement and the concrete itself from the corrosive effects of seawater.
