Corrosion studies in different construction materials, such as I-beams, reinforcing bars, angle bars, flat bars, made of several types of steel alloys, and for other types of materials made of aluminum alloys, were carried out to evaluate their performance. Conditions such as acid type/concentration, Temperature, air or CO2 bubbling, inhibitor presence, among others were varied during the experiments to explore the sets of conditions and to identify not only the most corrosive environments, but the most resistant material. The findings are presented and discussed.
