This book is designed for readers having a basic knowledge of corrosion processes, but who need more practical, specific information on combating metallic corrosion in soils. It covers: estimating the degree of corrosion danger, installing a system to avoid or minimize corrosion, detecting and measuring the corrosion in the system, providing corrosion protection, and proving that the protection is effective.
