This paper presents the results of a sensitivity analysis of the diffusion-based corrosion initiation model for reinforced concrete structures built in chloride-laden environments. Analytical differentiation techniques are used to determine the sensitivity of the time to corrosion initiation to the four governing parameters of the model, which include chloride diffusivity in concrete, chloride threshold level of steel reinforcement, concrete cover depth, and surface chloride concentration. For conventional carbon steel, the time to corrosion initiation is found to be most sensitive to concrete cover depth, followed by chloride diffusion coefficient, with normalized sensitivity coefficients of about 2 and -1. For corrosion resistant steels, the time to corrosion initiation is most sensitive to the surface chloride concentration and chloride threshold level followed by the concrete cover depth and chloride diffusion coefficient. The results of this sensitivity analysis are discussed in detail, including the variations in predicted time to corrosion initiation induced by variations of the four model parameters and their implications for the design and maintenance of concrete structures built in corrosive environments.
