This unique, new ASTM publication details the latest worldwide research on atmospheric corrosion, seawater corrosion, deterioration of concrete, and underground corrosion issues pertaining to tropical environments.

21 peer-reviewed papers cover:

• Mechanisms of corrosion processes.

• Performance of various remedial measures to prevent corrosion damage to steel in concrete.

• Proposal for revision of the ISO atmospheric corrosivity classification.

• New approach to cathodic protection of rebar and concrete.

• Evaluation of stainless steel for rebar in concrete as a long-term solution.

• Protection of underground structures in tropical marine environments.

• Difficulties of coating stainless steels for use in seawater.
