Understanding corrosion: Environmental factors and protective measures for structural steel

Corrosion is costing the Australian economy more than $30 billion each year, but much of it is preventable. A strong understanding of how corrosion occurs and the contributing factors will provide architects and specifiers opportunities to minimise or remove the risk of corrosion during the design stage of a building project. In most applications, a wide range of micro-environments and variables can change corrosion rates significantly on different parts of a building.
