Steel concrete reinforcing bars are known to rust on open storage, particularly in humid environments. Rebar manufactured through different technologies exhibit varying rusting tendency and hence have increased the confusion about their use in concrete. Published literature mainly deals with effect of rust on rebars` mechanical properties and concrete bond strength. Little work has been reported on the corrosion behavior of rusted rebars in concrete, Present paper compares the atmospheric rusting behavior of rebars produced through different processes and effect of degree of rust on rebars` corrosion behavior in concrete.
