Abstract:
SP49 Contains a collection of ten state-of-the-art reports written as a guide on the subject of corrosion. Information on procedures to reduce or prevent corrosion can be obtained from this volume. Some of the topics discussed are: mechanisms of corrosion, cathodic protection, corrosion inhibitors, protective coatings, and research still needed. Field experiences for: control of corrosion in offshore structures; shotcrete covercoats for prestressed concrete tanks; effectiveness of concrete cover; selection and use of epoxy and other coatings; and current research results are described.

Francis X. Crowley
The author provides a brief history of the original use of shotcrete to provide corrosion protection for spirally wound prestressed shotcrete and concrete tanks. In addition, various failures are described along with reason for the failures. Details are also given of steps that must be taken to insure permanent corrosion protection for the wire.

T.E. Backstrom
Coatings are sometimes considered for steel that is to be embedded in concrete when the structures will be exposed to moderately or highly corrosive conditions. There are numerous benefits possible by the addition of a protective coating to the steel, as well as several disadvantages. The desirability of use of a coating is open to serious question.

Bernard Erlin and George J. Verbeck
The electrochemical and physical mechanisms causing the corrosion of steel in concrete are known. There is, however, a need for information that will more specifically characterize the effects of individual factors that initiate corrosion, and for methods that can be used to stop the corrosion process once it has begun.

R.C. Robinson
Use of cathodic protection to prevent or arrest corrosion of reinforced or prestressed concrete structures which have been damaged, subjected to stray-current interference or installed in severly corrosive environments is discussed.
