Premature failure of bridges or structures due to corrosion can also result in human injury, loss of life, and collateral damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten by an authority in corrosion science, \u003cstrong\u003eFundamentals of Corrosion: Mechanisms, Causes, and Preventative Methods\u003c\/strong\u003e comprehensively describes the causes of corrosion—and the means to limit or prevent it. Engineers, designers, architects, and all those involved with the selection of construction materials will relish a reference that provides such a thorough yet basic illustration of the causes, prevention, and control of corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reference explores:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eMechanisms and forms of corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eMethods of attack on plastic materials\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eCauses of failure in protective coatings, linings, and paints\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eDevelopment of new alloys with corrosion-resistant properties\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eExposure to the atmosphere is one of the largest problems and biggest causes of corrosion that engineers and designers face in construction. It has been further estimated that the cost of protection against atmospheric corrosion accounts for approximately half the total cost of all corrosion protection methods. This book places special emphasis on atmospheric exposure and presents vital information regarding the design of structures, automobiles, household plumbing, manufacturing equipment, and other entities, as well as the effects of de-icing chemicals on highways and bridges.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45565241557230,"sku":"9781420067705","price":277.6,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9781420067705.jpg?v=1720676936","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/fundamentals-of-corrosion-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
