Birnbaum-Saunders Durability Life Prediction Model of Site-Exposed Concrete in the Saline Soil Area

Aiming at the prominent problem of short durability life of concrete in saline soil area and the shortcomings of indoor accelerated test, an outdoor field exposure test was designed. The concrete specimens were semiburied in the Tianshui area with salinized soil characteristics, and nondestructive t...
