Description

NACE SP21427 – Detection and Mitigation of Stray-Current-Induced Corrosion of Reinforced and Prestressed Concrete Structures

New in 2019! This NACE International standard practice establishes the general principles to be adopted to minimize the effects of stray current corrosion caused by direct current (DC) and/or alternating current (AC) from external sources on steel reinforced concrete (RC) and prestressed concrete (PC) structures or structural elements. The standard practice offers guidance for the design of concrete structures that may be subject to stray-current corrosion; the detection of stray current interference; the selection of protection measures; and the selection of mitigation methods.
