ICCP - Filler Joists

 


         

The asphalt roofs of this Benedictine monastery have been subject to water ingress and the embedded steel joists have suffered from corrosion and expansion. Cracks as wide as 35mm were measured. An ICCP system was designed, installed and commissioned by Rowan Technologies in 2006 to control corrosion of the embedded steel joists.
