IMPLICATIONS FOR CHANGE IN RESISTANCE CAPACITY AND OPERATIONAL STRESSES FOR SELECTION AND SPECIFICATION OF CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS:
AQUEOUS CORROSION :
Aqueous corrosion is the process of destruction or loss of any metallic material due to electrochemical reaction taking place between the material and moisture present in the atmosphere.
We use steel for reinforcement, window grills, etc in our constructions. First let us take reinforcement rods for better understanding of corrosion. Concreting under sea water or concreting in adverse conditions leads to reinforcement corrosion. Sometimes, the reinforcement in columns or beams may be exposed to the environment. This may happen due to improper compaction during concreting, usage of inferior materials in concrete, poor workmanship etc. We know that moisture in present in the surrounding air. So when the reinforcement is exposed to the environment, it tends to react with the moisture. Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon. The iron reacts with the moisture in the presence of oxygen and forms oxides of iron (rust).
EFFECTS OF AQUEOUS CORROSION ON R AND S:
STEPS TAKEN TO PROTECT METAL STRUCTURES FROM AQUEOUS CORROSION:
Sufficient cover in concrete prevents the exposure of reinforcement to the environment. Hence it prevents the corrosion of the reinforcement. Some of the values of clear cover are given as follows.
STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS | CLEAR COVER (mm) |
SLAB | 15 |
BEAM | 25 |
COLUMN | 40 |
FOOTING | 50 |
2. USING GALVANIZED OR PROTECTIVE COATINGS
Applying protective coating on reinforcement prevents the corrosion of the reinforcement. Galvanizing is the process of coating zinc over the steel rods to prevent them from rusting. Tinning is another process to prevent corrosion. It is the process of coating tin on steel or iron materials.
3. USING CORROSION INHIBITORS
Corrosion inhibitor is the substance addded to the concrete as admixtures to prevent the steel from corrosion. It is of 2 types namely anodic inhibitors and cathodic inhibitors.

Body 5 is assumed to be homogeneous circular cylinder, and mass of the pulley 4 is uniformly distributed over its rim. The coefficient of sliding friction between bodies and the plane is f 0.1 The coefficient of stiffness of a spring is c. A force F applied to the mechanism depends on the displacement s of the body 1. The mechanism starts motion...

"Annexure B" ASSIGNMENT 2 DESIGN BRIEF Due to increasing pedestrian traffic of students travelling from halls of residence to the engineering block at one of its devised a plan, which includes a new means of crossing a busy road safely and without causing traffic delay. A solution to protect student safety for crossing the busy road is to design and build a pedestrian bridge. This will eliminate traffic congestion and delays as well as eliminate conflict between pedestrians and motorists....

Examining the Importance of Data Governance in Healthcare By Shannon Fuller, MBA HEALTHCARE HAS ALWAYS focused on managing information from application to application, instead of looking at information holistically and defining it holistically. The industry's shift of focus onto analytics—whether it's for predictive analytics or modeling for improved readmission rates—puts the focus back on foundational data. Ihat's what is needed for things like population health, which is increasingly important in healthcare. Patient data isn't held or uséd solely in electronic...
