Corrosion fatigue crack growth experiment was conducted on ESE(T) (Eccentrically-loaded Single Edge notch Tension) specimen made of IS 2062 steel in salt water environment. The specimen was placed in a transparent chamber made of perspex sheet containing 3.5% NaCl solution which acted as corrosion environment. The corrosion process was accelerated by applying constant direct current of 0.2 A which was supplied by means of a regulated power supply. The test was conducted using a ?250 kN capacity computer controlled servo-hydraulic fatigue rated Universal Testing Machine. The maximum and minimum load values were 15 kN and 1.5 kN. The test frequency was 0.375 Hz and the stress rat
