Corrosion in Relation to Engineering Structures

Publication: Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers
Volume 102, Issue 1

Abstract

The corrosion problem may be considered from two angles, each encompassing quite an extensive field, and worthy in itself of the space normally allotted to a technical paper. The one phase, dealing with the fundamental mechanism of corrosion, is necessarily theoretical, and of secondary interest to the practising engineer. The other phase, pertaining to the relative utility of metals in engineering structures, is undoubtedly of major interest to a gathering of civil engineers. This latter subdivision is quite complex, involving factors of experience, of economics, of conjecture, of controversy, and of personal opinion.
