Key Details
Official Description
It is increasingly important for corrosion rate analysis to be performed on steel structures such as ships, offshore platforms and bridges to determine their safe operating life and for the development of effective and efficient maintenance practices. Optimal timeframes for asset availability and for planned redundancy also demand information about corrosion rates. Corrosion loss affects the effective load capacity of steel plating through causing plating thickness loss. The design of steel ship...
