Corrigendum 1
fib Bulletin 33: Durability of post-tensioning tendons

Please note the following errors in the text of Bulletin 33, “Durability of post-tensioning
tendons”, which was dispatched to fib members in March 2006:

Page 14, Table 1.3:


In the first column of section 4 – Corrosion induced by chlorides from sea water,
replace:

High Medium

Medium with

High High

Page 14, Table 1.3:


In the first column of section 5 – Freeze/thaw attack with or without de-icing agents,
add a horizontal line between the first occurrence of "High" and the second occurrence of
"Medium", to read as follows:

Medium

High

Medium

High

For the reader’s convenience, a corrected version of page 14 is given on the verso of this
page.

1.4.4 Considerations for selecting the protection layers provided by the structure
For applying the principle of multi-layer protection (see section 1.3.1), reference should be made to
the following sections:
- section 1.3.3 Concrete quality and cover;
- section 1.3.4 Waterproofing systems and other surface protection systems;
- section 1.3.5 Drainage system;
- section 1.3.6 Expansion joints;
- section 1.3.7 Cracking;
