ISO-PH MAPS IDENTIFY AREAS DETRIMENTAL TO DRAINAGE STRUCTURE PERFORMANCE LIFE
AN INVESTIGATION DETERMINED AND MAPPED THE HYDROGEN-ION CONCENTRATION IN NATURAL WATER THROUGHOUT ALABAMA, THIS MAP OUTLINES THE GEOGRAPHIC AREAS THAT ARE DETRIMENTAL TO METAL HIGHWAY DRAINAGE STRUCTURES. CHEMICAL, SOIL, AND ROCK CONDITIONS, IN ADDITION TO THE PH OF WATER, INFLUENCE THE SERVICE LIFE OF PIPE CULVERTS. ISO-PH LINES ARE NOT CONCLUSIVE, BUT AVERAGES AND THUS THE AREAS ARE ISOLATED WHERE DETAILED STUDY SHOULD BE MADE.
