We can see weathering steel in many places, and also on bridges. So why can this steel plate be used on the bridge? Let's introduce this question.
1. Corrosion resistance: many bridges are designed to be close to the water surface, and some even cross sea bridges, whether in sea water or river water, will be flooded by rising tide, which has high requirements for bridge materials. If ordinary steel is used, corrosion will soon occur, and the application of weather resistant steel plates in bridge engineering can effectively reduce these corrosion phenomena, Make the bridge construction more solid.
2. Beauty: weathering steel plate will naturally rust after a certain period of use. The color of this corrosion can change with time. This color element has been added to the design of many buildings to achieve a heavy effect. The use of weathering steel plate in bridge engineering virtually adds a thick texture to the bridge.
This is the reason why weathering steel can be used on Caiqiao Bridge. I hope you can understand.
