The invention provides a device and method for testing
chloride corrosion of a
reinforced concrete member under a continuous load. The device comprises a continuous load loading device, a rapid
chloride corrosion device and a measurement and control device. A continuous load is applied by a loading frame and a drive device, a frame body is filled with a
chloride solution and is fixed at the upper-middle part of a
test beam in a sealing manner, air is continuously injected in the chloride solution by adopting an
air pump, and
direct current is introduced into reinforced steel bars of the
test beam to implement the rapid
corrosion. Relevant data acquirers, electrochemical testers and output equipment which are controlled through a
single chip microcomputer in a unified manner are integrated in the main control box, the continuous load is measured in real time, and periodically corrected to a
target level, corrosion behaviors of a corroded member are periodically tested, and data are acquired, displayed, stored, printed and output in real time. The device is capable of effectively simulating an actual corrosion working condition of the on-active service
reinforced concrete structure member under the
coupling effect of a chloride environment and the load, and provides a scientific basis for evaluating the durability of
engineering structures under chloride environments such as sea and salt lakes.
