Duratinet: Maintenance and Repair of Transport Infrastructure
Résumé
This is Part III, Volume 4 of the DURATINET Technical Guide - Maintenance and Repair of Transport Infrastructure, which contains guidelines on repair methods for steel structures. The content of this volume was prepared and reviewed within DURATINET working group WG A4 – Maintenance and repair of steel structures. The aim of WG A4 was to harmonize the needs of maintenance and repair of steel structures and identify knowledge gaps in the partner countries. Within this WG, technical guidelines were developed relating to durability factors (both environment and material related), deterioration processes (damage mechanisms and defects), testing techniques for inspection, repair methods and protection systems for steel structures. All these subjects are considered in the five volumes of Part III of the DURATINET Technical Guide.
