Asset Publisher 2009-02-20 Call for Membership of the Canadian Advisory Committee (CAC) of ISO/TC 156 - Corrosion of Metals and AlloysCORROSION OF METALS AND ALLOYS The Standards Council of Canada (SCC) is seeking interested parties to participate on Corrosion of Metals and Alloys, (CAC/ISO/TC 156) and represent the following membership categories: consumers, industry, regulators and manufacturers. NOTE: Corrosion control industry is of immense importance to Canada. Numerous studies determined that loss of materials due to corrosion degradation amounts annually up to 10% of GNP. The same studies determined that 1/2 of this loss can be prevented by application of existing engineering knowledge, usually encoded in Standards. Since Canada has no national effort in developing corrosion control standards, participation in ISO standardization effort is essential in safeguarding Canada's national interest by providing active input into elaboration of corrosion control standards, which become de facto Canadian National Standards. The scope of CAC/ISO/TC 156 is the: Standardization in the field of corrosion of metals and alloys including corrosion test methods and corrosion prevention methods. General coordination of activities in these fields within ISO. Benefits of Participation:
