Microscopic investigations have been carried out on concrete samples taken from a series of Danish coast bridges with the purpose of studying the effects of long-term exposure of concrete structures to a marine environment. The following bridges were included in the investigations (Danish names are given in brackets):
- Vejle Fjord Bridge (Vejlefjordbroen)
- Alssund Bridge (Alssundbroen)
- Farø Bridges (Farøbroerne)
- Storstrøm Bridge (Storstrømsbroen)
- Øresund Bridges (Øresundsbroen)
- Vilsund Bridge (Vilsundbroen)
- Oddesund Bridge (Oddesundbroen)
- Hadsund Bridge (Hadsundbroen)
Results from these investigations have been collected in datasheets containing data obtained by optical microscopy, as well as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in combination with Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy:
