Combined Impressed Current Cathodic Protection and FRCM Strengthening for Corrosion-Prone Concrete Structures

This study introduces the use of the combined impressed current cathodic protection–structural strengthening (ICCP-SS) as a technique for repairing reinforced concrete structures that have been subjected to chloride-induced corrosion. The development of this technique is based on the combination of a carbon-fiber mesh (CF-MESH) and a polymer-modified cementitious matrix to produce a carbon-fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix (C-FRCM). First,...
