Solutions for Corrosion of Reinforced Concrete & Steel
Corrosion is a naturally occurring process that can lead to unsafe conditions, extensive repairs and even failure. While the causes of corrosion cannot be eliminated in reinforced concrete and steel structures, preventive measures and modern technology can minimize its damaging effects.
By taking a proactive approach, corrosion can be mitigated prior to the onset of significant damage. Addressing the issues early in the life of structures ensures the ability to efficiently plan or eliminate the need for costly repairs.
STRUCTURAL TECHNOLOGIES offers a full suite of cathodic protection systems – including both impressed current and galvanic solutions – to accommodate a wide range of service-life expectancies, budgets, design considerations and maintenance requirements. These systems can be used stand-alone or in combination to solve complex project challenges.
Corrosion Mitigation Systems
Galvanic Systems
Galvanic systems provide protection to reinforcing steel through the use of sacrificial anodes.
Fusion Systems
Combine the benefits of an electrochemical treatment and galvanic protection in a single anode unit.
Impressed Current Systems
Impressed current cathodic protection systems provide protection through externally powered anodes.
Electrochemical Treatment
Electrochemical treatments passivate active corrosion by directly attacking the root cause.
Post-tension Solutions
Offering a range of options to mitigate corrosion in post-tensioned tendons.
Corrosion Mitigation Systems
Embedded Systems
Whether galvanic or impressed current, our embedded systems can be tailored to deliver precise levels of protective current to concrete and masonry-embedded steel regardless of the steel density and thickness of the structure.
Surface Systems
STRUCTURAL TECHNOLOGIES’ Surface Systems use both commercial and patented anode alloys, providing corrosion protection to embedded steel in various concrete environments. These systems adapt to the structure’s form without prefabrication, allowing for flexibility during installation.
Whether utilizing galvanic or impressed current, the surface systems act as barriers, preventing further contamination. Coatings can be applied to match your structure’s aesthetic and exposure requirements.
Jacket Systems
STRUCTURAL TECHNOLOGIES’ Jacket Systems are a repair and corrosion protection solution in one. The jackets are custom-designed and manufactured to fit a wide range of shapes and sizes of reinforced concrete piles, prestressed concrete piles, jacketed steel pipe and H-piles.
Consisting of a fiberglass exterior shell with various anode systems capable of catering to the various environments and service life requirements of your structure.
