Hi All,
I would like to know the required current density for a marine pile in seawater surrounded by Mudstone Formation.
The Mudstone description is as follows :
" Very weak to moderately weak, massive, light brown
greenish gray and rosy brown, fine grained MUDSTONE.
Extremely close spaced to medium spaced fractures.
Inclusion of gypsum at different depths.
Band of crystalline gypsum at different depths."
The mud-stone formation starts at ~5m below the seabed.
