ICCP - Steel Cores to the Crypt Columns

 

                                 
       
                                 

In 2005 an ICCP system was designed, installed and commissioned to provide long-term corrosion control to the steel cores of four piers in the crypt of Gloucester Cathedral. These steel cores, which had been inserted post war, were subject to corrosion and expansion leading to cracking of the 11th century historic stones at the top and bottom of the piers.
