Abstract
The standards for conducting small-scale specimen tests are well developed, but there is a lack of direct guidelines for conducting corrosion tests for large-scale specimens. The objective here is to develop a methodology which may be used in designing an accelerated corrosion test of large-scale structural components subjected to a natural corrosion marine environment. Different factors influencing corrosion degradation of steel structures are analysed, including salinity and pH of the water, water velocity, oxygen content etc. The most important governing factors of corrosion degradation are identified, and the process of corrosion testing is defined in order to produce accelerated corrosion degradation in relatively short interval of time, developing a natural corrosion degradation mechanism, leading to irregular random corroded surfaces and material properties changes. Existing commercial testing equipment, that can be employed in creating accelerated corrosion conditions for testing large scale specimens, are investigated and the most efficient salt corrosion testing tank is identified. Several features of the corrosion test set-up are discussed.
