In three kinds of soils, namely, loam, silt and clay, the relations between moisture content, specific resistance and the corrosivity of soil have been studied. Also, the corrosion rates of steel and ductile cast iron buried in those soils have been determined. The results obtained show that the corrosion rate of steel in soil is slightly smaller than that of ductile cast iron and the former has a maximum at a certain moisture content of soil.
