Guiding corrosion values give corrosion rates ‘or standard structural materials and can be used for engineering calculations. The guiding corrosion val- ues spectly the technical content of zach of the ine dividual corrosivity categories for these standard metals. ‘his International Standard can be used 10 predict the service life for _motals, alloys and, in some cases, for meteltic coatings used in atmosphoies corresponding to different corrosivily cetegors {s00 lable 1), The guiding corrosion values siso pro- Vide a tochnical basis for determining tne need for profactive measures and olhar enitingering pur poses. The guiding corrosion values are based on experi ence abisinad from a large numbar of sila ov posures aid service performances. Corrosion rales expected for a given corrosivily category may be exceeded In the vicinity of special cesign features which cause localized or galvanic carronion. 2 Normative reference The (ollowing standard contains provisions which, through reforonco i ihis text, constitute provisions of this Internations!
