... This digest summarizes results from NCHRP Project 24-28A, which addressed these proposals and further validated the results from NCHRP Project 24-28, including predictive models for corrosion potential, metal loss, and service life of metal reinforced systems. The complete project final report for NCHRP Project 24-28A is available for download.2 RESEARCH APPROACH Marginal quality fills are classified according to minimum laboratory resistivity (AASHTO T 288, "Determining Minimum Laboratory Soil Resistivity")
