Abstract

The assessment of reinforced concrete structures affected by deterioration such as reinforcement corrosion involves the use of different models, according to different scientific and technical purposes. The paper presents a framework for structural modelling approaches previously devel-oped by the authors to fit in the concept of Levels of Approximation for Model Code 2020. The concept is here extended to include different accuracy levels in deterioration modelling. The paper moves from simple strut and tie models to analytical models and finite element numerical studies. The possibility of an extension of the framework to modelling the freeze-thaw deteriora-tion is highlighted. The conclusions highlight the available techniques and the needs for research developments
