20-Year Performance of Bridge Maintenance Systems

20-Year Performance of Bridge Maintenance Systems
Available for download

This paper will present the results of an inspection conducted in 2007, nominally 20 years after the initial coating application. The inspection showed varied service lives associated with the different coating systems. Some of the systems were in excellent condition after 20 years while others had completely broken down.

This paper will present the results of an inspection conducted in 2007, nominally 20 years after the initial coating application. The inspection showed varied service lives associated with the different coating systems. Some of the systems were in excellent condition after 20 years while others had completely broken down. In addition to the present condition of the test spans, the paper will review the historical performance of the various coating systems as well as the applied cost. Finally, several important implications for maintenance planners will be presented. These will include cost-benefit calculations and risk-reduction strategies.

(Coating Formulation) Corrosion Resistance Comparison of Zinc-Rich Epoxy With Reduced Zinc Levels

Product Number: 46-COAT_DEC21
Author: Mary Roley
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

Zinc-rich coatings have long been known to provide excellent corrosion resistance in highly corrosive environments, in general,inorganic zincs for new construction and organic zincs for maintenance. A recent trend has been toward zinc-rich coatings with reduced levels of zinc dust. An SSPC committee formed to revise SSPC Paint 29, Zinc Dust Sacrificial Primer, Performance Based, to reference performance only, removing reference to minimum zinc dust level.

(Coating Application,Types & Characteristics) New SSPC Paint 47 Fluoropolymer Topcoat Standard for

Product Number: 13-COAT_DEC21
Author: Dr. Kurt Wood
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

Since the 1980s, fluoropolymer resin technologies have offered the possibility of a quantum improvement in topcoat decorative properties- gloss and color retention- compared to conventional acrylic and polyester resins. Specifiers of both protective and architectural restoration coatings systems have expressed a need for a new SSPC standard for field-applied fluoropolymer topcoats, particularly for bright and saturated colors.

(Coating Application, Types & Characteristics) Use of Duplex Coating Systems for Protection of Structural Steel

Product Number: 15-COAT_DEC21
Author: William D. Corbett
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

The use of duplex coating systems (hot dip galvanizing or thermal spray coating with one or more liquid-applied coatings) for long term protection of structural steel is becoming more mainstream in many industries. This paper describes the advantages of employing duplex coating systems as well as some important considerations for designers prior to specifying their use. It also highlights an ongoing initiative to help agencies more efficiently and effectively use duplex coatings on steel bridges by developing guidelines, standards, and other materials.
