Abstract

Weathering steels are high strength low alloy steels that under normal atmospheric conditions give an enhanced resistance to rusting compared with that of conventional structural steels. The market for weathering steel bridges in the UK is growing exponentially. This paper describes the UK market for weathering steel bridges, highlights the benefits of the material, describes its limitations, and comments on the appearance of such bridges.
