Corrosion

CTLGroup experts have performed field and laboratory corrosion evaluations to interpret and analyze data in order to accurately understand the condition of structural components subjected to corrosion. Structures that we have investigated include utilities, soil retention, structural steel, and reinforced and posttensioned concrete elements.

CTLGroup has extensive technical expertise on the assessment of existing structures affected by atmospheric corrosion, reinforcement corrosion, the development of corrosion protection plans, the repair of affected areas, and prevention of further deterioration.
