Corrosion of buried metallic infrastructure is a serious and costly problem, but cathodic protection can reduce corrosion failures. This presentation will discuss corrosion theory and present specific applications of how properly designed, installed, and maintained cathodic protection systems can add additional service life to buried metallic structures.
