description In this work, we investigate the behavior of wire ropes when they are subject to corrosion damage. The method is based on accelerated corrosion using experimentation as well as a theoretical predictive model. The experimental approach used static tensile tests on corroded strands. A loss in rigidity and decrease of the ultimate force was observed. For the predictive model, the residual ultimate force was evaluated at a time t in function of the initial diameter, the residual diameter at time t and the ultimate force of the original strand. Given that the obtained residual force evolution depending on the strand�s fraction of life matched for both methods, the proposed predictive model can be used by engineers to assess if the wire rope needs to be changed to ensure a good maintainability of structures. Actually, when the applied force on the wire rope approaches its residual bearing force determined by a measure of the residual diameter, the wire rope removal is mandatory
