corrosion rate of steel in clay soil
corrosion rate of steel in clay soil
(OP)
I am searching for a resasonably simplified equation to compute an approximate corrosion rate of steel sheet piles (A572, Grade 50 Steel, 1/4" thick) over a life of 100 years in a clay soil. I have groundwater chemistry info including pH, chlorides, sulfates, alkalinity, and conductance. The upper section of steel will be above the groundwater and the lower section will be below the groundwater table.
Thanks for your help!

RE: corrosion rate of steel in clay soil
In short, equation does not exist. However, experienced hydrologists can give you an opinion that's worth more than equation.
