  • Bridges that use paintless weathering steel are known to frequently withstand decades of service owing to the steel's high atmospheric corrosion resistance.
  • conventional weathering steel JIS G 3114: atmospheric corrosion resistant steel for welded structure
  • mdd the unit (mg ⁇ NaCl/dm 2 /day) may be denoted as mdd) or less.
  • regular steel material JIS G 3106: rolled steel material for welded structure
  • dm denotes decimeter.
  • coating films deteriorate with lapse of time and require regular maintenance and repair.
  • the rise of labor cost and need for recoating add to the difficulty. Due to these reasons, presently, steel materials that can be used paintless are desired and steel materials that can be used paintless are in high demand.

  • PTL 4 discloses a steel material for welded structure, the steel material containing a large amount of Ni in addition to Mo, Sn, Sb, P, etc.
  • PTL 5 does not mention atmospheric corrosion resistance in an environment containing a high amount of air-borne salt, such as a coastal environment, but discloses a corrosion-resistant steel material for ships, the corrosion-resistant steel material containing W and Cr in addition to Sb, Sn, Ni, etc., for use as a corrosion-resistant material used in a severe corrosion environment where materials are directly exposed to splash of seawater, such as ballast tanks of JP2006118011 discloses a steel having excellent seaside weather resistance and capable of exhibiting excellent weather resistance even in a severe corrosive environment where the amount of flying salt exceeds 1 mdd.
  • NPL 1 Joint study report on use of weathering steel material in bridges [Taikosei kozai no kyouryou heno tekiyou ni kansuru kyodo kenkyu hokokusho] (XX), No. 88, March 1993, Public Works Research Institute in Ministry of Construction, Kozai Club, and Japan Bridge Association
  • the Ni content is suppressed to a low level and Cu and Ti are added.
  • additive elements other than these were investigated.
  • the steel material disclosed in PTL 5 has a different usage and a different required atmospheric corrosion resistance. No mention is made as to the atmospheric corrosion resistance in an environment with a high amount of air-borne salt such as a coastal environment.
  • the present invention has been made under such circumstances and an object thereof is to provide a structural steel material and a steel structure that have high atmospheric corrosion resistance at low cost.
  • the composition of the steel material was investigated from the standpoint of atmospheric corrosion resistance in a high air-borne salt environment.
  • the atmospheric corrosion resistance of a steel material in a high air-borne salt environment improves when W and Sn and/or Nb are contained in a base steel containing Cu and Ni.
  • Fig. 1 shows the results of a wet and dry cyclic corrosion test conducted on steel materials containing components shown in Table 1.
  • the wet and dry cyclic corrosion test was conducted as follows. A test specimen 35 mm ⁇ 35 mm ⁇ 5 mm in size was taken from each steel material and a diluted solution of artificial seawater was applied to the test specimen once a week during a dry process so that the amount of salt adhering to the surface was 0.2 mdd. A 24-hour cycle including 11 hours of the dry process at a temperature of 40°C and a relative humidity of 40% RH and 11 hours of a wet process at 25°C and a relative humidity of 95% RH with 1 hour of transition time was performed for 12 weeks (84 cycles).
  • the test specimen was immersed in an aqueous solution prepared by adding hexamethylenetetramine to hydrochloric acid to conduct derusting and then weighed.
  • the decrease in thickness (unit: ⁇ m) is an average decrease in thickness at one side of the test specimen and is determined by obtaining the difference between the initial weight and the weight measured as above and then dividing the result by a surface area of the tested portion of the test specimen.
  • the same test was conducted three times for each steel type. The average of the three measurements is marked by a solid circle in Fig. 1 and the minimum and maximum values are indicated by an error bar.
  • 0.2 mdd of adhered salt in this corrosion test is equivalent to about 0.5 mdd in terms of the amount of air-borne salt.
  • the environment with about 0.5 mdd of air-born salt corresponds to a high air-borne salt environment such as a coastal environment.
  • the amount of corrosion 100 years later is determined by extrapolation from the average decrease in thickness determined by this test.
  • the average decrease in thickness 100 years later is 0.5 mm or less, i.e., rust caused by exfoliation of layers can be prevented, if the average decrease in thickness observed during the period of the corrosion test is 14 ⁇ m or less.
  • paintless weathering steel can be used in bridges if the decrease in thickness 100 years later is 0.5 mm or less.
  • the steel materials can be used as paintless weathering steel for use in bridges if the average decrease in thickness is 14 ⁇ m or less in this atmospheric corrosion resistance test.
  • Fig. 1 show that the steel (steel type D) composed of a base steel (steel type R), W, and Nb and the steel (steel type C) composed of the same base steel, W, and Sn had an average decrease in thickness less than 14 ⁇ m and thus have significantly high atmospheric corrosion resistance compared to a conventional weathering steel (steel type Q), an ordinary steel (steel type S), and steels containing other combinations of elements (steel types A, B, and E to P).
  • Comparison between the steel types C and D and the steel type T with a high Ni content indicates that the atmospheric corrosion resistance of the steel types C and D is superior to that of the steel type T.
  • Steel types C and D are each a steel that has a low Ni content and contains Cu, W, Nb and/or Sn.
  • Cu and Ni densify the rust layer and prevent chloride ions, which are corrosion accelerating factors, from permeating through the rust layer and reaching the base iron.
  • W forms a complex oxide with Fe at an anode portion near the interface between the rust layer and the base iron to thereby suppress an anode reaction.
  • W exhibits selective permeability for cations by forming tungstic ions distributed in the rust layer and prevents the chloride ions, i.e., corrosion accelerating factors, from permeating through the rust layer and reaching the base iron.
  • Nb is concentrated at the anode portion near the interface between the rust layer and the base iron and suppresses the anode reaction and cathode reaction.
  • Sn is concentrated at the anode portion near the interface between the rust layer and the base iron and suppresses the anode reaction and cathode reaction.
  • these effects are insufficient if these elements are contained alone.
  • the synergetic effect of incorporation of Cu, Ni, W, Nb and/or Sn presumably significantly improves the corrosion suppressing effects of Cu, Ni, W, Nb, and Sn.

Acid-soluble Al was measured in determining the Al content.
  • Copper reduces the size of rust grains to help form a dense rust layer and thus has an effect of improving the atmospheric corrosion resistance of the structural steel material. This effect is achieved when the Cu content is 0.10% or more. At a Cu content exceeding 1.00%, the cost will rise due to the increased consumption of Cu. Accordingly, the Cu content is 0.10% or more and 1.00% or less and preferably in a range of 0.20 to 0.50%.

  • Comparative Examples (steel type Nos. 41 and 42) have a decrease in thickness of 14.0 ⁇ m and 12.5 ⁇ m, respectively, and thus have high atmospheric corrosion resistance, the alloy cost is high due to a large amount of Ni and thus the price of the steel material is high.
  • Comparative Example steel type No. 42 has Pcm exceeding 0.25 mass% and thus the preheating temperature for prevention of weld cracking was as high as 100°C, resulting in low weldability.
