Many hangars, shelters and silos used for storage of military weapons systems are several decades old and have started to show signs of aging and corrosion assisted damage of support structures. Case study.
Many hangers shelters and shilos used for storage of militaryweaponssystems are several decades old and started to show signs of aging corrosionassisted damage of support structuressuch assteel pipe stays beams joints flashings etc. in addition to roof. In particular this paper will address theissues andsolutions related with aging of a hangerwhich has corroded to a pointthat one has to address the sustainability of the structure as a major issue from atmospheric corrosion of roof and the cantilever support pipe staysunder load and stress. Inold infrastructures there is a lack of redundancy in design of thesupport frames such ascantilever portion of the hanger roof therefore thereis a concern that if one pipe-stay fails due to cross sectional metal loss fromcrevice/pittingcorrosion the adjacent stays would become potentially overloaded and cause the roof to fall.
Key words: aircraft hangar, atmospheric corrosion, roof and pipe-stay corrosion, aging, structural repairs.
A device measuring solution resistance across a gold interdigitated electrode, surface temperature and relative humidity, dynamically monitors environmental parameters on board a naval ship over the period of 9 months. Rigorous statistical analysis is used to analyze solution resistance data.

The quality of indirect inspection data is critical in an External Corrosion Direct Assessment (ECDA). The need exists to increase the accuracy of the field data collection, to improve the data processing and to effectively present the results. This paper describes several challenges.
This paper presents advances in the interpretation of indirect inspection data and selection of ECDA direct examination locations and how the accurate selection of locations most susceptible to external corrosion would improve pipeline integrity.
