Recently, extensive research was conducted regarding the impact of corrosion degradation on the mechanical properties of structural steel. Studies show that at the material level, the microstructure is somewhat unchanged due to corrosion degradation. However, the corrosion causes pits and structural surface irregularities that consequently impact the mean stress-strain response of typical coupon specimens subjected to tensile loading. Regrettably, the current industrial standards do not account for that phenomenon and treat the impact of corrosion degradation as the uniform thinning of the structural steel. The presented work aims to acknowledge the recent studies regarding the impact of corrosion degradation on the mechanical properties of structural steel, to show future perspectives and to outline the need for more research in this field.
