Abstract

Previous national studies on costs of corrosion are reviewed and brief explanations are given of the Uhlig method, Hoar method and Input-output method that are employed for corrosion cost estimation. Total costs of corrosion of 11 countries are summarized and the results by Uhlig methods are compared especially for the recent studies from the U.S, Japan and China.
