This study will address galvanic corrosion. Based on a case study of galvanic corrosion in a guyed power transmission tower, experiments using a number of methods were made on a small sample of eight poles chosen for excavation and visual inspection, to assess the various resulting diagnoses. Method that provided the best results both in location and classification of the points was adopted, where corrosion had already begun, considering the concern of finding a non-evasive process. To diagnose the status of the poles inserted in rock, after applying the methods, the main types of corrosion affecting them were listed and classified. With the results, the possible means of preventing and maintaining the structure were presented.展开更多
