Description

NACE 01105 – Sacrificial Cathodic Protection of Reinforced Concrete Elements – A State-of-the-Art Report

The purpose of this technical committee report is to present state-of-the-art information on several commercially available galvanic cathodic protection/prevention systems for protecting atmospherically exposed reinforced concrete structures. A summary of these systems is presented in Appendix A. It is beyond the scope of this report to fully address all factors associated with design, criteria, implementation, quality control, cost, maintenance, and monitoring of these systems. The information contained in this report has been provided by key manufacturers of these systems and is intended as a technical resource for engineers responsible for the rehabilitation of reinforced concrete structures. It may also be useful to owners, contractors, and other practitioners related to the field of galvanic cathodic protection (CP).
