NACE 01102-2018 PDF Download

The NACE 01102-2018 standard is a state-of-the-art report that provides criteria for the cathodic protection of prestressed concrete structures. It is intended to be used by engineers for evaluating and implementing cathodic protection systems to prevent corrosion in these structures. The report emphasizes the importance of referencing relevant standards, such as NACE Standards RP0187, RP0290, and RP0390, which provide additional guidance on cathodic protection.

This standard acknowledges that in certain situations, the cathodic protection system may become a structural element or have a significant impact on the serviceability and structural performance of the prestressed concrete element. Therefore, it is recommended to consult a registered structural engineer to review and assess the potential impact of the cathodic protection system on these structures.
