Corrosion processes on weathering steel railway bridge in Prague
Urban, Viktor1, Krivy, Vit2, Buchta, Vojtech3.
This contribution deals with experimental corrosion tests carried out on the weathering steel
railway bridge in Prague. The basic specific property of the weathering steel is an ability
to create in favourable environment a protective patina layer on its surface. Since 1968
weathering steel is used under the name “Atmofix” in the Czech Republic and can be
used as a standard structural material without any corrosion protection. The weathering
steel Atmofix is mostly used for bridge structures and lattice transmission towers. Some
of these constructions built in the Czech Republic have been assessed and inspected
in the last few years. Authors of this paper developed a new methodology of nondestructive
experimental testing of corrosion processes. Testing specimens are installed
on typical surfaces of steel bridges in such a way to simulate real conditions
of the examined surface. This paper describes results of corrosion tests (thickness
of corrosion products, corrosion losses and X-Ray analysis) after one-year exposure,
correlation factor and dependence of location.
