Electrochemical Test Methods to Evaluate the Corrosion Potential of Earthen Materials
There is a need to identify new or improved laboratory and field test
methods to measure the electrochemical properties of earthen materials surrounding buried or
embedded steel elements.
The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's
NCHRP Research Report 958: Electrochemical Test Methods to Evaluate the Corrosion Potential of Earthen Materials
presents a protocol for evaluating the corrosion potential of earthen materials in contact
with steel highway structures.
