Abstract
This paper is the “State-of-the-Art” review of corrosion control measures applicable to gigantic maritime structures such as Trans Tokyo Bay Highway, Honsyu-Shikoku Connection Brigde and Kansai International Airport. It is essentially desired that corrosion control measures for these maritime structures posesses 50 to 100 years durability. Because the protective coatings using in atmospheric zone lay stress on the appearance as well as corrosion resistance, specification plans in this domain mostly employ fluoro-resin paints and acrylic silicone resin paints with excellent weatherability. In the splash and tidal zones, toughness against mechanical injurings is one of the important character for coating films to prevent them from being damaged. Therefore, protective coatings with glassflake, heavy duty epoxy mastic containing silica sand and corrosion resistant metal (SUS316L, Ti) sheathing can be preferably listed in the specification plans of corrosion control measures for splash and tidal zones of huge maritime structures.
