Corrosion Fundamentals for Engineers and Inspectors

Although corrosion is regarded as nature’s way of converting a refined metal to a more stable form, its impact on the economy has been significantly devastating in many industries. Studies in the United States alone have estimated the total annual economic impact of corrosion on the US economy to be in hundreds of billions of indirect costs. More importantly, corrosion has been the cause of many infrastructure and industrial incidents leading to injuries and loss of lives. As such, it is important to understand the fundamentals, mechanisms and potential consequences of corrosion.

This 2-day interactive training provides general concepts of recognizing corrosion problems, establishing causes of corrosion and selecting of corrosion control methods through understanding the principles of corrosion mechanisms and its consequences. Some actual case histories of corrosion-related failures will also be presented and studied to help participants gain practical knowledge on the application of these principles.

Objectives:

The training provides participants with:

  • Introduction to corrosion terminology and basic concepts
  • Knowledge of the classification of different types of corrosion mechanisms
  • Knowledge on methods to detect and monitor corrosion degradation so as to mitigate or prevent any significant consequences or failures from occurring
  • Theoretical and practical knowledge through case studies
