Prediction of Corrosion Processes on Weathering Steel Bridges

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper describes the basic attributes of the new developed analytical method used for the calculation of corrosion losses on structural elements designed from weathering steels. The calculation takes into account the locality of the structure, type of the weathering steel, position and location of a surface in the structure and compliance with structural and maintenance requirements. The methodology for experimental testing of the realistic corrosion rates is introduced in this paper as well.
