Fundamentals of Cathodic Protection and Monitoring (CS025F)

Fundamentals of Cathodic Protection and Monitoring (CS025F)

8-Hour Expert-Led Online Course

About the Course:

Many of the fundamental issues affecting the integrity of buried metallic assets are directly apportioned to environmental and third party interference matters which can be either affected or mitigated via applied Cathodic Protection. This course covers the aspects of Cathodic Protection such as CIPS, DCGV Surveys and discussing the importance of the ability to provide in-depth reviews and mitigation solutions into such aspects.
