Managing Green and Sustainable Technologies: Climate-Informed Corrosion Prediction for Steel Structures

The unpredictability of atmospheric circumstances is one of the major elements that contribute to the capability to anticipate the corrosion growth in metal structures over time accurately. Climate shifts can potentially modify the longterm attributes of these factors throughout the operational life of metal structures, both those currently in existence and those newly developed. The impact of climate irregularity on the probabilistic nature of atmospheric variables, which significantly impact corrosion situations, can add intricacy to corrosion predictions in these constructions. This project presents an incorporated framework to quantify the impact of climate alteration on the corrosion rates of steel structures in Jordan. It considers the changes in environmental conditions, specifically temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed, and their impacts on atmospheric corrosion. Global Climate Models are employed to assess the long-term effects of climate transformation on these environmental circumstances. An analytical model for anticipating corrosion rate is integrated with climate transformation models to predict modifications in the corrosion rates of steel parts relative to historical situations. This project also examines the impact of climate transformation on the fluctuations of these climatic parameters and offers a contrast between historical data and projected conditions across the country. The findings indicate a significant increase in corrosion rates across Jordan, which calls for localized green building codes and standards to ensure that future infrastructure is sustainable and capable of withstanding the new climatic norms. This approach addresses the immediate challenges posed by climate change and contributes to the broader goals of sustainable urban development and managing green technology adoption in Jordan.
