The threshold amount of chloride ions inside concrete initiate rapid corrosion of steel rebar. In-situ monitoring of the chloride ions in concrete is, therefore, inevitable for sustainable constructions. Electrochemical sensors are the most appropriate sensors, for monitoring of chloride ions, due to their reliability, easiness and speed. However, their long term performance is still a question mark. This talk will explore the possibilities of long term and in-situ monitoring of chloride ions inside concrete.
