What is the life of reinforcement?..

Answer / abhijit hemant sane

Reinforcement can last perpetually, i.e. forever if it is
propoerly encased in concrete.
Life of reinforcement reduces drastically and may not be
more than couple of years if its is kept exposed in
environment. The rate at which it deteriorates depends on
the environment conditions like temprature, humidity etc.
