This report covers current practices and research relating to corrosion in prestressed systems.
The report covers topics such as:

Factors that govern corrosion of steel in concrete;

Measures for protecting embedded metals in new construction;

Techniques for detecting corrosion in structures in service; and

Remedial procedures.

It includes a chapter that covers the various types of prestressing steel, with some discussion of metallurgical differences. ACI 222.2R also provides techniques, current and proposed, for evaluating prestressed structures with respect to corrosion of strands and tendons.
