ResumenReinforced concrete is currently the most widely used system in the construction industry due to its excellent properties, including its durability, workability, lifetime, and compressive strength. However, reinforced concrete structures have disadvantages, such as corrosion, that affect their performance and may even lead to unexpected and/or premature failures. The main cause of this type of failure is the presence of chlorides, mostly from seawater. In this context, cathodic protection is one of the most efficient methods for protecting reinforced steel from corrosion. However, it is very expensive due to the high resistivity of concrete. In this research work, it is proposed to modify concrete by partially replacing the fine aggregate with rPET and CBF, thus exploiting the mechanical properties of rPET to promote energy dissipation, mitigating the stresses to which the reinforced concrete system is exposed and increasing its compressive strength. Furthermore, due to its hygroscopicity, CBF is used to promote moisture retention and reduce the resistivity of the concrete, thus facilitating cathodic protection of the reinforcing steel through the impressed current. The results indicate that the presence of rPET increases the compressive strength of concrete by approximately 8% in comparison with the reference sample after 28 days of curing, while the presence of CBF reduces the resistivity of concrete, ultimately increasing the cathodic protection efficiency of the reinforcing steel.es_ES
