Innovative technologies for nondestructive determination of fracture toughness for pipeline steels in transportation infastructure
SBC: INNERSPEC TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: 180PH1In the inspection and quality assurance framework, coercimetry refers to non-destructive testing of mechanical properties based on measurements of the magnetic characteristics of a metal. This technology relies on the continuous and noticeable (100-400%) increase in the magnitude of the coercivity, while the metal passes from as-delivered to its final state. As both magnetic and mechanical propert ...

Corrosion Resistant Prestressing Strand for Prestressed Concrete Bridges
SBC: METNA CO Topic: 141FH6Prestressing strands are the core constituents of prestressed concrete structures. Steel offers important advantages over the emerging classes of composite tendons in this application; susceptibility of prestressing steel to corrosion, however, is a concern. The market appeal of existing corrosion-resistant strands has been dampened by their high cost and some enduring technical concerns. In recen ...
