Soluble salts may be transferred to a steel bridge or other structure as an airborne aerosol (generally from marine or industrial sources), wind-blown debris, and debris transferred from vehicles. Perhaps the most significant source of soluble salts on bridges is from de-icing materials. Once on the structure, salts may become incorporated into corrosion scale, poultice, or crevices.

In the 1920's the Ford Motor Company commissioned architect Albert Kahn to design regional automobile assembly plants. The largest on the West Coast was built in Richmond CA. With over 500,000 square feet of floor space under one roof it is still today the largest single building on San Francisco Bay. During the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake this National Historic Building was severely damaged to the point that it could not be occupied. This paper tells the tale of how due to incredible time restraints an Olympian effort was needed to retrofit and restore this national treasure to a usable commercial building.
This case study shows how the City of Virginia Beach addressed concrete tank foundation deterioration and steps taken to reduce future deterioration, including moisture control, impact of Alkali Silica Reaction, concrete analysis and proper surface preparation, coatings applications and inspection.
The spray-applied, two-component, ambient-cured polyurea, which features no VOC’s and low odor, can be applied at colder temperatures than current available coatings. This wider temperature application range extends the season for restoring outdoor concrete substrates. The technology provides quick dry times; leading to faster return-to-service and helping applicators and owners meet tight deadlines.
This standard recommended practice covers the care, handling, transportation, and installation of internally plastic-coated (IPC) oilfield tubular goods and accessories (IPC material). Historical Document 1996
Guidelines for establishing standard procedures for test panel selection, surface preparation, coating application, field exposure sites and conditions, and the grading and evaluation of panels. Historical Document 1993

This recommended practice covers both hot- and cold-applied wax coatings and component wrappers as coatings systems for the protection of underground piping. Historical Document 1975
Wax coating systems are designed to provide underground pipes with protection against corrosive environments. This standard recommended practice covers surface preparation, material requirements, application, and handling of hot- and cold-applied wax and component wrappers and wax-tape coating systems for the protection of underground pipe, fittings, and valves. This standard is intended for use by corrosion control personnel, design engineers, project managers, purchasers, and construction engineers and managers.
This standard describes a procedure for the application of a coating system to the interior surfaces of covered steel hopper rail cars used primarily in the plastic, food, and chemical industries. Historical Document 1997
Discussion around the basics of shop-based air powered abrasive blasting, some of the criteria which should be considered when choosing a surface preparation method and ways to reduce costs associated with this process. Technologies and Industry Best Practices are often overlooked or circumvented in the name of tradition or cost savings- but the results of these choices can be very harmful. The conversation will be centered around taking steps to maintain or increase production, while increasing departmental profits.
