Abstract A series of experimental studies was reassess to reconsider the maximum initial chloride contents specified in the relevant specifications. First, the current regulations regarding initial chloride content established in several countries were reviewed. next various properties, including mortar flow, porosity, strength, and chloride penetration resistance, were assessed for mortars with varying initial chloride content. Third, corrosion risks of rebars embedded in the mortar with various initial chloride contents were evaluated. The experimental results revealed that, in terms of mortar flow, setting time, porosity, compressive strength, and chloride penetration resistance, the initial chloride content had no adverse effects up to 0.4 wt.% of the binder. Furthermore, mortars with initial chloride contents of 0-0.4 wt.% of binder exhibited a low risk of rebar corrosion.
