Guide to the Development of a Deterioration Rate Curve Using Condition State Inspection Data

Abstract

The deterioration of elements of steel hydraulic structures (SHS) on our nation's lock system is caused by combined effects of several complex phenomena, corrosion, cracking and fatigue, impact, and overloads. This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note presents a procedure for generating a deterioration rate curve when condition state inspection data are available.
