Description
Summary:	Currently in Colombia, there are few investigations that allow determining the atmospheric corrosion rates, the problems generated by corrosion are increasingly common since the use of metallic structures is more and more daily in engineering projects. The objective of this research is to classify the atmospheric corrosion rates of the Northeast area of the city of Barranquilla, likewise, to study the different meteorological factors that affect the corrosion process; For this, three “wires on screws” devices (PVC-Al, Fe-Al, Cu-Al) were installed within the facilities of the Universidad de la Costa. The results obtained indicated that despite the incidence of the pollutants produced by the factories near Via 40 and the salinity from the Caribbean Sea, the industrial and marine atmospheric corrosion indices showed low results, whose meaning would show that the area of study is habitable and the classification for these indices is negligible or moderate. Allowing to conclude that, despite obtaining low atmospheric classifications, the accumulation of pollutants that generate the corrosion process are notorious in the long term, so it is advisable to use protection mechanisms such as materials or coatings that make the corrosion processes minimal and the useful life of certain metallic materials such as steel is extended whose useful life when unprotected can be an average of two years before their function is affected.
