Stress Corrosion Cracking Evaluation of Candidate High Strength Stainless Steels for Prestressed Concrete
Prestressed concrete piles are commonly used to support over-water highway bridges in marine environments. The reinforcing steel within will ultimately be degraded via corrosion damage due to the penetration of chloride ions from sea water. The service life of these structures is, in part, dictated...
