For concrete with exposure type C2, the ACI dictates that larger concrete covers are used, higher strength concrete is specified along with a lower w/cm ratio. I am not seeing any recommendations on additional corrosion resistance for the reinforcement. If all these extra concrete specifications are met, is coating of the rebar or providing galvanic anodes just overkill?
