Galvanized pipe and flat specimens were included in the soil corrosion tests (Table 4.3) conducted by the Subcommittee on Buried Metals of the Corrosion Committee of the British Iron and Steel Research Association (Hudson and Acock, 1952). The galvanized test pieces averaged 670 g/m coating (about 95 p,m). The specimens were buried for 5 years at a depth of 0.6 m in five British soils. With the exception of the specimens buried in cinders at Corby, all the test pieces were rated excellent (no sign of breakdown) on visual examination. However, the weight loss data show that...
