Well its a manufacturing failure issue from corrugated steel sheeting that has been inadequately been rust proofed. Because the treatment of the steel has failed water has made contact with the low quality steel and started to degrade thus rusting.

As the metal expands through rusting the plastic or painted coating begins to lift off and eventually crack and decompose.
