RAP-8: Installation of Embedded Galvanic Anodes

Embedded galvanic anodes reduce the corrosion activity of the reinforcing steel in the vicinity of the installed anode. Anodes are installed in areas of the concrete where there is a high likelihood of corrosion occurring or recurring. Type 1 anodes are installed to provide improved protection of uncoated reinforcing steel in the repair area and in adjacent chloride-contaminated or carbonated concrete surrounding the repair area. Type 2 anodes are used in sound chloride-contaminated or carbonated concrete to mitigate corrosion of the reinforcing steel and delay the onset of delamination or spalling of the concrete.
