CREVICE CORROSION
Edge of front truss member with crevice corrosion Steel bridge
13
Crevice corrosion has severely bent the top, the sides and the bottom of the box members. and overstressed the rivets.
14
A common form of crevice failure occurs due to stress corrosion cracking. where a crack or cracks develop from the base of the crevice where the stress concentration is greatest.
15
This was the root cause of the fall of the Silver Bridge in 1967 in West Virginia where a single critical crack only about 3 mm long suddenly grew and fractured a tie bar joint

MECHANISMS
Carbonation and chloride ions equal a lot of corrosion. The carbonation and chloride ions diffuse through the concrete The pH is lower by the presence of the chloride ions.

MATERIAL SELECTION
Steels of the ASTM A709, grade 50, type, which have yield strengths in the (50-ksi)
Mechanical Properties A709 Gr 50: Tensile: 58 min ksi Yield: 50 ksi min Elongation: 16% min in 8 19% min in 2

CONCLUSIONS
HSLA Steel Plate A709, grade 50 remain good materials to choose for the bridge. Weathering Steel Corrosion is a hazard which can be avoided by prevention and protection Protection by Organic coatings and Allow no galvanic coupling by using other metals.
