CREVICE CORROSION

13

Crevice corrosion has severely bent the top, the sides and the bottom of the box members. and overstressed the rivets.

STRESS CORROSION CRACKING


The Silver Bridge upon completion in 1928

A common form of crevice failure occurs due to stress corrosion cracking. where a crack or cracks develop from the base of the crevice where the stress concentration is greatest.

15

This was the root cause of the fall of the Silver Bridge in 1967 in West Virginia where a single critical crack only about 3 mm long suddenly grew and fractured a tie bar joint

WEATHERING STEEL CORROSION

CASE : STEEL REBAR REINFORCEMENT CORROSION


Reinforcement : reinforcing steel (baja tulangan) Common steel grade 32 is used (yield strengths 32 ksi)

MECHANISMS
Carbonation and chloride ions equal a lot of corrosion. The carbonation and chloride ions diffuse through the concrete The pH is lower by the presence of the chloride ions.

PREVENTION AND PROTECTION


1) Dense impermeable concrete 2) Adequate reinforcement cover 3) Rich cement factor 4) Salt-free aggregates 5) Minimum chloride content in mixing water when it is built (Bridge on Sea Water) 6) Proper type of cement mix 7) Consolidation of cement around steel reinforcement 8) Adequate curing (complete hydration) 9) Organic coatings 10) Allow no galvanic coupling by using other metals (i.e. copper & aluminum) in the reinforcement.
21

MATERIAL SELECTION

Steels of the ASTM A709, grade 50, type, which have yield strengths in the (50-ksi)

Mechanical Properties A709 Gr 50: Tensile: 58 min ksi Yield: 50 ksi min Elongation: 16% min in 8 19% min in 2
22

CONCLUSIONS
HSLA Steel Plate A709, grade 50 remain good materials to choose for the bridge. Weathering Steel Corrosion is a hazard which can be avoided by prevention and protection Protection by Organic coatings and Allow no galvanic coupling by using other metals.
