La présente partie de la Norme européenne traite de l'évaluation de la force corrosive dans les sols des matériaux ferreux faiblement ou non alliés qui sont en contact direct avec le sol. Les systemes de protection contre la corrosion et leur performance ne sont pas abordés dans la présente norme, mais ils sont traités dans d'autres normes spécifiques, relatives aux produits.
La présente partie de la Norme européenne traite du cas des nouvelles structures destinées a etre enterrées et donne des informations sur les structures existantes.

EN 12501-2:2003 (E)4IntroductionThis European Standard should be used in conjunction with EN 12501-1, Protection of metallic materials againstcorrosion — Corrosion likelihood in soil — Part 1: General, which describes general principles of the assessment ofthe corrosion load.The method of assessing the corrosion load in the case of a new structure to be installed takes into account theadverse parameters of the soil and environment with regard to corrosion. They have been chosen to avoidunderestimation of the risks of corrosion damage. The assessment is performed considering a bare structure indirect contact with the soil without taking into account any protective system that will be present in service.The complexity of corrosion in soil demands that the measurements and their interpretation are carried out byexperienced personnel. The described method should be adapted in relation to the expected service life of thestructure and to possible future changes of its environment.1 ScopeThis part of this European Standard deals with the assessment of the corrosion load in soil for low-alloyed and non-alloyed ferrous materials in direct contact with soil. Corrosion protection systems and their performance are notcovered by this standard but by specific products standards.This part of this European Standard deals with the case of new structures to be buried and gives information forexisting structures.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. Thesenormative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter. Fordated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this EuropeanStandard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of thepublication referred to applies (including amendments).EN 12501-1:2003, Protection of metallic materials against corrosion — Corrosion likelihood in soil — Part 1:General.3 Terms and definitionsFor the purposes of this European Standard, the terms and definitions given in EN 12501-1:2003 apply.4 Assessment of the corrosion load in soil for a new structure to be buried4.1 MethodThe method to be applied is based on:¾ general concepts and factors influencing the corrosion load given in EN 12501-1;¾ criteria defined in the present standard.SIST EN 12501-2:2003



EN 12501-2:2003 (E)5The corrosion load is accepted high if no investigation is done for any reason.4.2 Criteria4.2.1 Soil conditionsTable 1 summarises different soil conditions to be examined during either the preliminary inquiry or the site surveyand which indicate a location of high corrosion load, in the absence of further investigation.Table 1 — soil conditions that can lead to a high corrosion loadCharacteristicsCircumstancesExamples of criteriaType of soilNatural soilPresence of peat, lignite, coal . in the soilsAreas such as marsh, fen, .Tidal zonePresence of brackish or sea water tableAnaerobic soils (Possible Microbially Induced Corrosion)Artificial soilSoils containing ashes, slag, industrial by-products, residuesof household refuse, .Areas backfilled by industrial by-products (any type)Uncontrolled recycled materialsElectrical influenceDevice using DCClose vicinity of DC railways, tramways, underground, .Proximity of a cathodically protected structure, or anodes, .Device using ACProximity of AC power lines, AC railwaysProximity to AC earthing electrodesPollutionContaminated soilsContamination by de-icing salts, manure, fertilisers, leakingsewer, industrial pollutionTopography HydrographyPresence on the pipe route of a low point, a creek or rivercrossing, .OthersToponomyIndications from the village names of special characters of thenature of soilThree phase boundaryFluctuating water table4.2.2 Preliminary InquiryA preliminary inquiry generally consists of a topographical study, a geological study and an investigation for specificinformation. It enables to identify areas which should be studied with particular attention during the site survey.Annex B gives more detailed information on the way to collect data during the preliminary inquiry.In the absence of further investigation, such as site survey or soil sampling, and if one or more criteria as given intable 1 are met corrosion load is accepted high.4.2.3 Site surveyA site survey consists in collecting additional information (see Table 1) by observations and measurements on theconstruction site; soil resistivity measurements have to be performed and, when appropriate, potential gradientmeasurements.Annex B gives additional information on the way to carry out a site survey.The following criteria allow to assess the corrosion load, based on visual inspection of soil and resistivitymeasurements from the surface during the site survey:SIST EN 12501-2:2003



EN 12501-2:2003 (E)6¾ resistivity values below 30 Wm and/or soil conditions as given in Table 1 indicate locations of high corrosionload;¾ if resistivity values are above 30 Wm, additional investigation such as soil sampling shall be done. However, ifthe three following conditions are fulfilled together, they indicate locations of low corrrosion load and no otherinvestigation is necessary:¾
soil is sand or gravel,¾
resistivity values are above 100 Wm, for site survey conditions representative of the average soilmoisture content and temperature values,¾
soil conditions as given in Table 1 are absent.In addition, in case of a possible electrical influence, whatever its origin, measurements should be taken on site inorder to assess more precisely its effects on the estimation of the corrosion load. If no measurement is performedthe corrosion load is accepted high.4.2.4 Soil samplingSoil samples are taken at various locations on
