In corrosion-sensitive areas of exsisting unpainted weathering steel bridges with closed box girder structures. there are some serious local corrosion problems because of rain water or dew water which can not be solved by exsisting maintenance methods. These problems must be controled technically because of bad. influence on the safety of bridge. This study is the first stage of developing the economic corrosion control manual for these local corrosion problems. Through the injection of tar sealant into the crevice of mock-up equipment, it was prooved that the corrosive sealant can be useful to corrosion control at crevice of corrosion sensitive area.
