Corrosion Prevention

Corrosion Prevention of steel structures and reinforced concrete structures is an increasingly important method of repairing and protecting spalling concrete, damaged bridges, steel framed buildings, harbours, wharves and other structures.

It can also be applied to protect new structures, by applying corrosion prevention techniques, to ensure the problem does not occur in the first place.

Corrosion is probably the single most serious cause of deterioration of reinforced concrete and steel structures. Buildings and bridges are suffering from corrosion because of contamination by sea salt and salts cast into the concrete and the carbonation of concrete.

Within the construction industry, architects, and engineers agree that of all the problems that can beset a building or structure inadequate corrosion prevention, above and below ground, creates the greatest threat. Soil and atmospheric chemicals activate and attack the very structure of the building without being immediately detectable. Thus over a period of time the damage is done.

Whether it is a multi million project cost, or a maintenance job, you need to sure.
