CORROSION FATIGUE RELATED TO WELDED STEEL STRUCTURES - A LITERATURE SURVEY

The influence of variables affecting corrosion behaviour are reviewed. These include: shape of loading cycle, aeration of water, salt concentration pH , surface coating, degree of cathodic protection, type of loading, and water pressure. Experimental results showed that the tensile component of the stress range was more significant than either tensile mean stress or tensile strength in corrosion fatigue crack propagation.
