Abstract

Scope of BCIRA. The British Cast Iron Research Association was created in 1921 to promote the scientific and technical advancement of the ironfounding industry. Most of its work is concerned with the improvement of methods of production of iron castings and their quality, but it also provides an advisory service for users of iron castings and acts as a centre for the collection and dissemination of information on cast iron, and this includes, among other things, advice on the corrosion characteristics of the metal. Its laboratories were originally sited in Birmingham but in 1942 it moved into its present home at Bordesley Hall, some 13 miles south of the city. In 1962, a new block of laboratories was completed in which the staff of the investigations department, including the corrosion investigators, are now housed.
