Title: Factory applied corrosion protection of prestressing steel

Category: State-of-art report

Year: 2001

Pages: 20

Format approx. DIN A4 (210x297 mm), 3 tables, 12 illustrations


ISBN: 978-2-88394-051-2

Abstract: Without doubt, active corrosion protection of prestressing steels by cement
grout can be one of the most economic and durable solutions, if properly
executed. Numerous other corrosion protection systems which fulfill
requirements such as controllability and exchangeability are available. This
state-of-art report, prepared by a Task Group and approved by fib Commission
9 Reinforcing and prestressing materials and systems, concentrates
exclusively on factory applied corrosion protection that can be produced in
controlled processes which should assure a better quality than corrosion
protection applied on site.
The report is addressed to designers and installers (executing persons)
attempting to inform them about the various possibilities for industrially
applied corrosion protection and to provide the necessary knowledge for
their application.
