Structural Maintenance for New and Existing Ships: Study No. 2. Corrosion DamageEvaluations. Evaluation of Corrosion Damage in Crude and Product Carriers

摘要

This report is one in a series of reports conducted as part of a two year JointIndustry Research Project 'Structure Maintenance for New and Existing Ships' initiated in June 1990 by the Department of Naval Architecture and Offshore Engineering of the University of California at Berkeley to both develop practical tools and procedures for the analysis of proposed ship structural repairs and to prepare guidelines for the cost effective design and construction of lower-maintenance ship structures. This report is based on the results of Study 2, 'Corrosion Damage Evaluations; whose objective is to develop and verify engineering guidelines for the evaluation of corrosion damage to critical structural components of existing ships. This report documents the study tasks associated with the development of a corrosion rates database for the critical structural details.
