to avoid or minimise all containment zones, which favour the mechanisms of localised corrosion (pitting or crevice corrosion);
not to assemble together materials with non-compatible electrochemical properties, which risks encouraging galvanic corrosion.
When designing a structure for immersion in the sea, an assessment must be carried out to define which alloys...
