The aim of this work is to try to explain why the chloride profiles differ even though the samples are taken in a homogeneous concrete, and within a small area. As a first step in this study, different sampling methods have been used to investigate the influence of the sampling method on the achieved results. Slabs were submerged in a 13.5 % NaCl solution for about six months. Two different sampl
