A Practical Corrosion Service Program^★ Available to Purchase

A corrosion engineer’s work is both corrective and preventive. Doing better preventive work lessens corrective work required. A wide knowledge of materials and fabrication with good spcifications to cover both is required of the corrosion engineer. Frequently a corrective corrosion or metals problem is the heart of an engineering problem. When a specific problem is isolated, the engineering problem usually must be solved before the materials problem. A simple substitution of materials of construction is frequently inadequate. By the accumulation and distribution of helpful preventive information, the corrosion engineer establishes his value as a consultant and recognition of his worth follows.
