3 The exposure classes related to sulphate attack are given in Table 6.2 in relation to sulphate
and pH of the ground water.
Table 6.1.
Exposure classes for reinforcement corrosion
AR
X0 No risk of corrosion or attack. Non saline conditions. Blinding concrete,
non-reinforced concrete or slab on ground
X1 Mild exposure – Non saline conditions (dry or wet, rarely dry). External
AT
concrete at least 3m above ground level, internal concrete in dry
conditions, concrete permanently submerged in non-saline water or non-
aggressive groundwater (Class S1).
Q
X2 Moderate exposure – Non saline conditions (cyclic wet and dry). External
reinforced concrete less than 3m above ground level, water-retaining
AL
structures exposed to fluctuating water levels.
X3 Aggressive exposure – Permanently submerged or wet (rarely dry).
Concrete in contact with groundwater including capillary rise zone,
N
concrete containing or permanently exposed to saline water.

S1 < 1500 > 3.5 Not mobile > 5.5 Not mobile
S2 1500-3000 > 3.5 Not mobile > 5.5 Not mobile
S3 3001-6000 ≤ 1000 > 3.5 Not mobile > 5.5 Not mobile
S4 > 6000 ≤ 1000 > 3.5 > 5.5 > 5.5 > 6.5
S5 > 6000 > 1000 > 3.5 > 5.5 > 5.5 > 6.5
Notes
1. Brownfield sites are those previously occupied and contain chemical residues into the ground
or groundwater
2. The mobility of water shall be determined as described in the Concrete Society CS 163.
