TOTAL CORROSION MANAGEMENT
Ignoring Corrosion is NOT an Option:
- 3% of GDP each year attributed to corrosion
- 27.5% of US bridges are structurally deficient or functionally obsolete
- Condition of infrastructure rated a D+ by ASCE
START WITH THE CONDITION SURVEY
A thorough condition survey is critical to ensure a successful repair & protection project by selecting a strategy that will meet the project requirements. This testing should always be conducted by a qualified professional. Surveys generally consist of performing any number of the following tests:
- Spall and delamination survey
- Chloride and carbonation testing
- Reinforcement mapping and cover measurements
- Half-cell potential contour mapping
- Corrosion rate assessment
