What are the phenomena of rust on steel structures and what hazards does it cause?
1. Rust on steel structures can be divided into three types: ① Light rust: Pitting corrosion appears on the surface, and some parts develop oxide scale. ② Moderate rust: Bright red rust spots and some oxide scale cracks. ③ Heavy rust: Oxide scale peels off, and the oxide layer increases. Some thick oxide layers can cause the steel structure surface to sink. 2. The main hazards caused by rust on steel structures: ① Stainless steel structures will have reduced load-bearing capacity and affect structural stability. ② Stainless steel structures will increase maintenance costs. ③ Rust on steel structures will shorten their service life. If steel structures are not regularly maintained and treated in a timely manner, rust stains and oxide scale will increase the corrosion and rust rate of the steel structure, which will not only affect the service life of the steel structure but also create potential safety hazards. 3. Effective methods for dismantling steel structures: ① Manual rust r...
