The use of mathematical and statistical models has allowed the description of the behavior of many natural phenomena. However, their application in civil engineering particularly, for the analysis of the corrosion behavior, has been overlooked in recent studies. In the present work, a factorial analysis with subdivided parcels design were conducted to evaluate the corrosion rate behavior of arrangements of protected and not protected steel bars found in reinforced concrete specimens subject to two different aggressive media. The results showed that, in comparison to sulphate ions, the effect of chloride ions on the corrosion rate was not statistically significant. In the same way, protected and not protected segments on the steel bars (i.e., steel bar condition) did not have a significant effect on the corrosion rate. The only factor found to significantly affect the corrosion rate was the variability of the beam fabrication process (i.e., beam factor)
