Benefits of weathering steel
"Weathering" means that due to their chemical compositions, these steels exhibit increased resistance to atmospheric
corrosion compared to other steels. This is because the steel forms a protective layer on its surface under the influence
of the weather.
The corrosion-retarding effect of the protective layer is produced by the particular distribution and concentration
of alloying elements in it. The layer protecting the surface develops and regenerates continuously when subjected to
the influence of the weather. In other words, the steel is allowed to rust in order to form the 'protective' coating.
