ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method of representing corrosion occurring in the reinforced concrete structure and the resultant representation. The representation comprises a display of individual color indicia each representative of electrolytic voltage potential measured at a corresponding location on a surface of the structure. Each color indicia is one of a selected group of distinguishable color indicia and each distinguishable color indicia represents a predetermined range of electrolytic potentials. The method of representing corrosion involves measuring the electrolytic voltage potentials at predetermined locations on the concrete surface, and assigning a displacement co-ordinate to each measurement and a color indicia to each measured value of electrolytic voltage potential. The color indicia is representative of each measured electrolytic voltage potential and is marked on a surface in accordance with the co-ordinates of each measured potential.
