AMPP TR21540-2022, Correlating Qualitative Surface Profile Assessment Methods to Quantitative Methodology on Prepared Concrete Substrates

Product Number: AMPP TR21540-2022

Publication Date: 2022

$109.00

Coating/lining manufacturers and/or facility owners frequently specify cleaning and roughening of the concrete surface prior to product installation. The specifications may reference qualitative methods including visual assessments using comparison coupons or quantitative methods including surface profile depth measurements. However, prior to this Technical Report, there was no known data to inform a conversion between qualitative and quantitative methods. The outcomes of this Technical Report enable coating manufacturers, engineers, specifiers, and contractors to convert well-established qualitative methods to quantitative values based on an interlaboratory experiment. While current quantitative methods can measure up to 6 mm (250 mils), extremely rough concrete surfaces (exceeding ~1.5 mm, or ~50 mils) were not included in the experiment due to the inability to stabilize the instrument probe and obtain accurate data.

AMPP TR21544-2022, Corrosion and Mitigation Techniques for Fire Protection Piping Systems

Product Number: AMPP TR21544-2022

Publication Date: 2022

$109.00

This report explains different types of corrosion phenomena and contributing factors of corrosion that can occur in fire protection systems (FPS), such as water corrosivity, MIC, trapped air (wet systems), residual water (dry systems), and pipe weld corrosion. The basis for selection of corrosion mitigation strategies for corrosion mitigation and management of FPS are also discussed.

Corrosion that results in pipe leakage or obstruction is the most significant issue for owners of water-based FPS or fire sprinkler systems, in terms of both cost and system reliability. Corrosion damage/products and mineral deposits can impair the effectiveness of sprinkler systems, leaving facilities vulnerable to uncontrolled fire loss even though they are equipped with fire protection systems. This report describes practices that have been successful in mitigating FPS corrosion.

Concrete Cracks: Causes, Correcting, and Coating

Product Number: 41205-214-SG

Author: Gail Winterbottom, Fred Goodwin

Publication Date: 2005

$20.00

Cracks in a concrete substrate pose a challenge for coatings. Cracks that are not properly identified and addressed can lead to premature failure of the coating. This paper will discuss the forces that cause cracking in concrete structures, as well as crack types and repair techniques.

Ethics for the Corrosion Professional

Product Number: Ethics eCourse

$99.00

The corrosion profession, and the certified professionals who work in the industry, are committed to protecting people, assets, and the environment from the effects of corrosion. Those tasked with delivering the technical expertise to society must conduct their work with the knowledge and understanding of the ethical principles expected and required of those professionals.

The AMPP Code of Ethics is discussed in conjunction with relevant case studies and features real-life ethical violations of the AMPP attestations. Frameworks for making ethical decisions are also reviewed in this course along with the factors in the corrosion industry that can lead to unethical behavior.

This is an online, self-paced course which should take 1.5 to 2 hours to complete. After you have purchased the course in the store, log into your AMPP profile and select “Online Courses” to begin.

Purchase of this course includes a one-year subscription and is non-refundable. Students will have access to all course materials for a period of one year from the date of registration. All course work must be completed during this time period. Extensions or transfers cannot be granted.

Product Number: NACE SP0112-2023

Publication Date: 2023

$109.00

This AMPP standard practice provides a structure for setting up and maintaining a Corrosion Management System (the System) for existing atmospherically exposed reinforced concrete structures. This standard is concerned with the risk-based management of corrosion to maintain the safe operation of structures and to minimize the risk of unexpected failures and unplanned closures and outages. The Standard applies to any reinforced concrete structure that is atmospherically exposed including: parking structures, bridges, residential or commercial buildings, and any structures at risk of corrosion development.
