ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: Japan often experiences high humidity and temperatures, especially during the summer. Therefore, metallic corrosion prevention is an important requirement for the construction of steel structures construction. Against this background, a new metal spraying system was developed. An outline of the newly developed metal spraying system and a performance of the zinc-aluminum complex sprayed steel bridges was been reported in IABMAS’04. In that paper, the efficacy of the system for corrosion prevention of steel bridges was discussed.
