Description
The design purpose of architectural finish on steel structures is to prevent corrosion in the respect of structural durability, function, beauty and economy. In particular, as structures located on shores is easily degraded due to damage from salt, it is necessary to evaluate the applied coating systems on steel structures. This study is focused on anti-corrosive tests of both steel surfaces and high strength bolts. Two kinds of tests were conducted on each specimen under the condition of outdoor exposure and salt spray comparatively during 760 hours. In case of coating systems on steel surfaces, three layered coating system showed the best function among the various coating systems. Regarding the coating systems on high strength bolts, the coating system composed of zinc dust on hot dip galvanized coating was found to be the best against corrosion
