A building's rate of deterioration is not uniform. The degradation of any single building component is, in fact, generally constant over time. For example, the rusting of a steel beam, corrosion of a cast iron pipe, erosion of mortar between masonry joints and weathering of a roofing membrane all progress at a relatively uniform rate. Engineers and architects have observed, however, that where building systems are involved, the rate of deterioration, in fact, increases as a building ages.

ATHENS, Ga. - Standing vigil on the cupola of City Hall for more than a century, the 8-foot-wide eagle was in dire need of repair.
For one, the copper-plated eagle weathervane was riddled with bullet holes and weathered by 103 years of outstretching its wings to Mother Nature. Corrosion had eaten away at the weathervane's iron infrastructure as well as part of the metal facade that made up the bird's body.

Use of metal-matrix composites
Aluminium based metal-matrix composites (MMCs) are strong, resistant to corrosion and lightweight and can be used instead of unreinforced aluminum, cast iron and steel, in automotive, sporting goods and industrial equipment applications. Duralcan USA, San diego, CA and Advanced Composites Materials Corp (ACMC), Greer, SC, both produce commercial aluminium matrix MMCs, and guidelines on machining such materials include the use of high feeds and low speeds, and the use of PCD veined drills.
