Rebars in Marine concrete
Rebars in Marine concrete
(OP)
I would like to get the feedback from designers of
marine facilities what type of rebars they have used,
particularly in the tidal zone.(Ordinary black bars,
galvanized, epoxy coated, any other). and why was
the selection made. Any feedbacks based on
construction experience, long term performance?

for new constructions? What about capital and operating costs?
How many projects have had CP system of rebars installed?

Cathodic protection is very good, either active or passive. Hot dipped galvanizing is a form of passive cathodic protection and it also acts as a very tough barrier coating. I've even designed galvanized bar systems with additional sacrificial zinc manganese anodes to extent the onset of first corrosion.
