Corrosion in Construction Materials

Corrosion in construction materials continues to be a significant factor in the degradation, weakening and loosening of key properties of the different components or structures they are part of. I-beams, angle bars, reinforcing bars (rebars), stainless steel, among others, are subject to conditions (in some cases extreme) that in a way or the other affect the performance of the structure. This works aims at being an explorative evaluation of the corrosion of such construction materials under different conditions, such as acids, Temperature, gas bubbling, among others. Several experiments are performed, and the findings are analyzed, discussed and interpreted, as to identify mainly the most corrosion resistant combination and at the same time the most corrosive combination.
