Abstract
This work presents the evaluation and diagnosis of the structural corrosion of a section from a Refinery located in a marine environment. This refinery was constructed in 1946, of structural steel and coated with concrete type fireproofing. These structures were exposed to contamination from winds blowing from the Caribbean Sea. The structure shows a high amount of damage by corrosion, some of which was quite advanced.
