Corrosion Failure of the Rocky Point Viaduct

Abstract: The Rocky Point Viaduct, located near Port Orford, OR, was replaced after only 40 years of service. A beam from the original viaduct was studied in detail to determine the mechanisms contributing to severe corrosion damage to the structure. Results are presented from the delamination survey, potential and corrosion mapping, concrete chemistry, and concrete physical properties. The major cause of corrosion damage appears to have been the presence of both pre-existing and environmentally-delivered chlorides in t… Show more

“…These findings are consistent with the observation that adding such solute elements usually increases the corrosion resistance of alloys, while Cu and Fe are usually considered to decrease the corrosion resistance of alloys. 19,29,30 Of course, solubility of the elements, mechanical properties and other considerations should also be considered in alloy design. 31,32…”

“…In this paper, a framework for linking atomistic properties with environmental conditions is built to study the competitive adsorption of different species (Cl, H 2 O, OH and O) onto alloy surfaces. Nibased alloys, which represent an important class of CRAs, [14][15][16][17][18][19] are used as an example to develop and validate the framework. In the first part of the work, 20 the adsorption energies of O and Cl were calculated using density functional theory (DFT) for Ni-Cr-X (X = Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ru and W) ternary alloys.…”

“…The ones specific for the 2XXX alloys are: θ (Al 2 Cu) and S (Al 2 MgCu). They both influence the corrosion behaviour of the 2024 alloy; however, the latter is more important [6]. The mechanism of the corrosion of the alloy was mainly investigated in the neutral solutions containing Cl − .…”
