Master's thesis in Civil and structural engineering (BYG508) Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) was developed in research to increase the strength and durability of concrete. The material has shown remarkable ductility, durabilityand strength properties in laboratory tests, but has not beenmuch tested in practice. This master thesis presents an experiment to investigate the durability of UHPC in two marine environments in view of the risk of rebar corrosion. Factors under consideration are cover depth and crack width to observe how this will influence the penetration of aggressive substances that can cause corrosion. To investigate the corrosion state and chloride content, electrochemic…
