The objective of this work is to analyze the strength and deformability of steel specimens subjected to random non-uniform general corrosion and tensile load. The real shape of corrosion surface has been generated by a probabilistic model of corrosion deterioration. Non-linear, large deformation and threedimensional finite element analyses have been employed to analyze the mechanical properties of deteriorated specimens. The strength of corroded specimens is estimated as a function of the average corrosion depth and the minimum cross sectional area. The deformability and energy absorption of the corroded plates are estimated as a function of the surface roughness represented by the difference of averaged plate thickness and that at the section of minimum cross sectional area.
