Corrosion of Embedded plate
Corrosion of Embedded plate
(OP)
Hi,
Due to some special reasons we have base plate welded to the embedded plate. I am worried that embedded plate would corrode. Can anybody clarify me that weather I am right, also if I am right kindly explain me remedy.

And many times, it doesn't. You've got to look in detail at each pad. Try a sealant or good paint over the top of the plates, making sure to create a seal between plate edge and concrete upper surface.
The welding is not specific to this problem - bolted connections can rust too. But less often because the bolt allows a little bit of movement.

Would that cause much upward force on the base plate. IF grout hole was provided in embedded plate will that resolve all these issues.
