Temporärer Korrosionsschutz von Spannstählen in unverpressten Hüllrohren

Temporary corrosion protection of prestressing steels in non‐injected ducts Prestressing steels may be subjected to corrosive conditions during the manufacturing process at building sites. Due to this a risk of hydrogen induced stress corrosion cracking of the steels may arise. Tests under practical conditions in a prestressed concrete beam were carried out where non‐injected ducts were treated with preheated scavenging air to prove this method being able to protect the prestressing steels against corrosion. The results yielded sufficient corrosion protection by this measure and therefore it may be an interesting alternative in comparison to corrosion protection by film forming agents which contain inhibitors.     

Wasserstoffabsorption in alkalischen Elektrolyten

Hydrogen absorption in alkaline solutions Hydrogen permeation tests were carried out in order to clarify the mechanisms of hydrogen absorption in alkaline solutions at low hydrogen coverages. The influence of different oxygen contents (no oxygen to saturation) and pH‐values (pH 9, 11 und 13) on hydrogen adsorption and absorption rates was determined as well as the hydrogen activities.     

Gefahr Spannungsrisskorrosion – Systematische Untersuchung des Brückenbestands in Mecklenburg‐Vorpommern

In diesem Beitrag wird die systematische Untersuchung des Brückenbestands des Landes Mecklenburg‐Vorpommern hinsichtlich seiner Gefährdung durch Spannungsrisskorrosion beschrieben. Das Projekt war in vier Phasen gegliedert. Zunächst wurde ein Konzept erarbeitet, danach aus dem gesamten Brückenbestand die gefährdeten Bauwerke herausgefiltert und in Kategorien bzw. Bauwerksgruppen eingeteilt. 16 besonders gefährdete Brücken wurden genauer untersucht. In der zweiten Phase wurden die Erkenntnisse aus dieser 1. Phase auf den gesamten Bauwerksbestand übertragen und eine Prioritätenliste erstellt. Außerdem fanden Beprobungen erster ausgewählter Bauwerke statt. Auf die Phasen 3 und 4, bei denen weiterführende theoretische Untersuchungen für spezielle Bauwerke im Vordergrund stehen, wird in diesem Beitrag nicht näher eingegangen. Hazard stress corrosion cracking – Systematical analysis of bridges in Mecklenburg‐Vorpommern. In this article, the systematic investigation of all prestressed bridges of Mecklenburg‐Vorpommern with regard to its exposure to stress corrosion cracking is described. The project was divided into four phases. First, a generally concept was developed. Then the endangered buildings were divided into categories. 16 bridges have been investigated. In the second phase, the findings from phase 1 have been transferred to all buildings in the stock and a priority list drawn up. In addition, first bridges were sampled. In the phase 3 and 4 were more theoretical studies and specific buildings in the foreground. These phases are not content of this paper.
