ASTM G51-95(2000)
Historical Standard: ASTM G51-95(2000) Standard Test Method for Measuring pH of Soil for Use in Corrosion Testing
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM G51
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers a procedure for determining the pH of a soil in corrosion testing. The principle use of the test is to supplement soil resistivity measurements and thereby identify conditions under which the corrosion of metals in soil may be accentuated (see G57-78(1984)).
1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
