LIMITATION OF CORROSION EFFECT ON THE REDUCTION
OF LOAD CAPACITY OF STEEL BRIDGES BY
THERMAL SPRAYING


SUMMARY
The subject of this paper is the determination of load capacity reduction of steel bridges by the effect of corrosion (corrosion losses, corrosion fatigue). Paper describes also how to limit this effect by application of thermal spraying, which becomes more and more popular method of the corrosion protection of bridges used in Poland.

Keywords
Steel bridges, corrosion, load capacity, thermal spraying.
