The data of deterioration and material properties is collected Some basic data from the database from condition assessment reports of 946 existing concrete buildings.
One condition assessment report include a lot of information about the building: - A lot of information is in numerical form, like cover depths of steel bars, carbonation depth of concrete, porosity of concrete, thickness of insulation layer etc. - Quite lot of information is also in verbal form, like thinsection analyses, situation and amount of visual damage, condition of coatings etc.

CONCLUSIONS
Corrosion of reinforcement is caused by carbonation of concrete in Finnish concrete facades. Chloride-induced corrosion is not problem. Despite the fact that carbonation has achieved reinforcement widely, corrosion can bee visually seen only locally. The corrosion of reinforcement has been possible last 20 to 30 years in concrete facades made 1970s or earlier. Corrosion speed has strong relationship with the amount of rain and prevailing wind directions. Corrosion damages occurs mostly on southern and northern facades. Corrosion is more general in the upper parts of facades than first floors.
