How about reinforcment bar carbonisation? How would a PROMATECT® H lining affect the treatment of this problem in tunnels
 
The concrete cover should be designed for addressing this aspect, although the PROMATECT® H lining shields the concrete from direct contact of aggressive car pollution. An examination of the 9 year old PROMATECT® H board cladding to Velser tunnel in Netherlands was conducted. The PROMATECT® H showed negligible lost in strength and the no rebar carbonisation was visible in the concrete.
