The estimation of the residual structural capacity of corroded RC structures is becoming a crucial factor in the decision-making process of repair or demolition. Many researchers have studied the effects of reinforcement corrosion on the load capacity of RC beams (Bernoulli or B-Regions) but little attention has been paid to disturbed or D-Regions. This piece of work presents a procedure for the assessment of the residual structural capacity of D-Regions in RC members. The bond deterioration between steel and concrete, the reduction of the cross-sectional area of reinforcement, the deterioration of the concrete area of the cross-section and the softening of concrete has been taken into consideration. The accuracy of the method has been tested with experimental results which exist in relevant literature.}, keywords = {Disturbed regions}, keywords = {Reinforced concrete}, keywords = {Corroded reinforcement}, keywords = {Residual capacity}, keywords = {Anchorage length}, title = {Residual capacity assessment of reinforced concrete D-Regions affected by corrosion}, author = {Hernández Montes, Enrique and Fernández-Ruiz, Manuel Alejandro and Carbonell Márquez, Juan Francisco and Gil Martín, Luisa María}, }
