Abstract
Harbour marine steel structures, which are served in severe marine environment, should be protected in appropriate method to reduce corrosion problems. Cathodic protection, one of the protection methods in terms of practical and economical point of view is being widely used to marine steel structures mentioned above. Recently it has been reported that the life of Al alloy anode with sacrificial anode for protection of harbour marine steel structures was shortened significantly than the original design life. In this study, the optimum cathodic protection design of harbour marine steel structures was investigated with parameter of sea water pollution degree.
