This training course provides information about corrosion in concrete, including how it develops, systems applied for protection from it, and techniques used to assess the condition of a corroding concrete structure. This course also engages participants in a series of practical lab exercises to reinforce course topics and introduced concepts.

This is a 3-day, 30-hour course approved for 30 CEUs.

OBJECTIVES

  • Develop a basic understanding of electricity and chemistry as it relates to corrosion theory and corrosion in concrete.
  • Understand cathodic protection principles, review galvanic and impressed current protection systems, and determine when and why to use each system.
  • Complete hands-on training that includes operating and testing various galvanic and impressed current cathodic protection systems.
  • Discuss corrosion condition assessment investigations and address testing techniques used for this purpose.
  • Apply understanding of topics/concepts learned in a series of lab exercises.
