Types and causes of underlying corrosion processes must be determined precisely for each construction element exhibiting signs of deterioration, so that the selected repair works and protection methods are adequate. Only then will the protection and repairs be appropriately durable; this, in turn, will reduce the costs of building maintenance. The corrosion cause analysis of selected construction elements hereby presented is based on research conducted on the buildings as well as on laboratory and structural (microscopy and x-ray microanalysis) research.
