Korozeeneck software allows for deterministic as well as stochastic modelling of chloride-induced degradation of reinforced concrete structures. To perform stochastic modelling it is necessary to use the Monte Carlo reliability framework. The Korozeeneck software ensures the modelling of both phases (initiation as well as propagation). It helps to estimate the time until initiation of corrosion in the steel reinforced concrete structures. Also, the time until unacceptable cracking caused by uniform corrosion can be assessed. The Paper consists of a description of the analytical model used in the Korozeeneck software as well as of the example of a deterministic application.
