CortenʻO ke kila he inoa hōʻailona no ke ʻano o ke kila ʻino i ʻike ʻia no kona ʻano ʻokoʻa, nā ʻili ʻōpala, i hoʻohana ʻia i loko o nā facade kūkulu hale a me ke kiʻi kiʻi, a hoʻohui ʻia i ka hoʻolālā ʻāina. ʻOiai ka inoa ʻo Corten ua hōʻailona ʻia e US Steel Corp., ua hoʻohana mau ʻia ka huaʻōlelo no nā kila kūʻai kulina a pau, kahi hui o nā mea hao kila e hoʻomohala ana i kahi hiʻohiʻona like me ka ʻōpala i ka wā. "Ke kūʻai ʻoe i ke kila corten i kēia lā, ʻaʻole paha he corten," wahi a Branden Adams, he mea hoʻolālā a mea hana ma BaDesign ma Oakland, Calif.
Ua hoʻolālā mua ʻia ke kila Corten e hoʻopau i ka pono o ka pena a i ʻole nā mea pale pale ʻē aʻe, a ma ke ʻano o nā makahiki he nui ia e hoʻohua ai i kahi ʻili oxidizing kūlohelohe ʻaʻole wale e pale iā ia mai ka corrosion hou aku, akā hana pū kekahi i mea hoʻolālā kūpono. "Maikaʻi ka Rusting i kēia hihia no ka mea ʻaʻole ia e pale wale i ka metala lalo, akā hōʻike pū i nā kala nani a me ka honua," wahi a ka mea pena metala ʻo Montana ʻo Pete Christensen.
"ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi no nā moena pua no ka wā lōʻihi, mālama haʻahaʻa," wahi a Philip Tiffin mai Five Twenty Industries, kahi mea kanu hana ʻo Auckland. "Ke'ōlelo neiʻoe he mau makahiki." ʻO nā kila ʻē aʻe e hoʻomau i ka ʻinoʻino, ʻoiai ʻo ke kila o ka wā e ʻōpala i kekahi ʻano. ʻO ka ʻōpala e hana i kahi papa pale e hoʻolohi i ka ʻino e hiki mai ana.
Ua hoʻohana ʻo Andrew Beck, he mea pena kiʻi kiʻi kiʻi kiʻi ʻāina, i ka corten e hana i kahi pāpoʻi pōʻai ma kāna māla ma Perth, Australia. Hāʻawi ka mea i kahi ʻokoʻa like ʻole i nā lau ʻōmaʻomaʻo, a ʻo kāna silhouette slim e hiki ai iā ia ke hoʻopaʻa paʻa i ka POTS no kēia hoʻonohonoho noʻeau. "Ke hoʻohana mākou i ke kila māmā, pono mākou e manaʻo i ka corrosion a no laila e hoʻohana i kahi metala kaumaha, ʻo ia hoʻi ke kaumaha nui a ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o ka hoʻohana ʻana ma kahi mea kanu nui," wahi āna.
ʻAʻohe mea e ulu ana i loko, corten cultivated seedbeds nā hiʻohiʻona hoʻolālā e hoʻohui i ka nani i kekahi māla.
Ma waho aʻe o nā moena kanu ulu, Corthoʻohana ʻia ka en no nā pā paʻa ʻāina, nā kukui, nā trellises, nā pā, nā lawelawe ahi a me nā puka. "E hōʻole wau i ka hoʻohana ʻana iā ia ma ke ʻano he noho no ka mea e ʻeha a loaʻa ka wela o ka lā," wahi a Adams.
Eia kekahi, corthoʻohana ʻia ka en i kekahi manawa no nā hiʻohiʻona wai, akā hiki ke hoʻopaʻa ʻia. "Inā makemake ʻoe a ʻoluʻolu paha me ia, e hele no ia," wahi a Adams.
