Abstract
The most ancient buildings made of reinforced concrete
encountered in the field of historical monuments date back to the beginning
of the 20 century. Carbonation, inducing a corrosion of the rebars,
is the main weathering mechanism of those edifices. Even if largely studied,
this decay phenomenon remains quite complex, field studies being sometimes
in contradiction with theories on carbonation progression for example, as
high depths of carbonation can be reached within 50 years. Several case
studies of buildings of different ages will illustrate the complexity of the
carbonation development, strongly linked to environmental conditions, but
also to concrete performance.
