外文原文II:Some questions on the corrosion of steel in concrete.PartⅡ: Corrosion mechanism and monitoring, servicelife prediction and protection methodsJ.A. Gonzdlez , S. Felifd, P. Rodffguez , W. Lfpez , E. Ramlrez , C. Alonso , C. Andrade ABSTRACTThis second part addresses some important issues that remain controversial despite the vast amounts of work devoted to investigating corrosion in concrete-embedded steel. Specifically,these refer to: 1) the relative significance of galvanic macrocouples and corrosion microcells in reinforced concrete structures; 2) the mechanism by which reinforcements corrode in an active state; 3) the best protective methods for preventing or stopping reinforcement corrosion; 4) the possibility of a reliable prediction of the service life of a reinforced concrete structure ; and 5) the best corrosion measurement and control methods. The responses provided are supported by experimental results, most of which were obtained by the authors themselves. 1. INTRODUCTIONConcrete-embedded steel is known to remain in apassive state under normal conditions as a result of thehighly alkaline pH of concrete. The passivity of reinforcementsensures unlimited durability of reinforcedconcrete (1KC) structures. However, there are someexceptional conditions that disrupt steel passivity and causereinforcements to be corroded in an active state. This hasraised controversial interpretations, some of which werediscussed in Part I of this series [1]. This Part II analysesthough far from exhaustively, other - to the authors mindsat least - equally interesting issues on which no generalconsensus has been reached.2. MATERIALS AND METHODSThe reader is referred to Part I for a detailed descriptionof the materials and methods used in this work.Most of the experimental results discussed herein wereobtained with the same types of specimens and slabs.Galvanic couples were determined on speciallydesignedspecimens, such as those shown in Figs. 1 and 2.Near-real conditions wer
