Modern corrosion protection for stay cables, tendons and ground anchors for strait crossings structures
Abstract
High strength prestressing steels are superior to conventional reinforcing steels as well as alternative materials with regard to their price/performance ratio. Thus they are preferrably used for taking up high tensile forces. In order to perform similarly robust and durable as the less corrosion-sensitive, low-strength steels, special, if possible redundant, corrosion protection is necessary.
