Successful coating and lining application on concrete substrates are contingent, in part, on the basic design and installation of the concrete itself. Protective coatings and linings are effected by the amount and movement of water in the concrete, the compressive and tensile strength of the concrete and the concrete's ability to resist cracking from internal and external forces. Through attention to sub-grade conditions, water cement ratios, aggregate grading and content, and finish and cure techniques, probability of successful coating and lining application can be greatly increased.
Inspection has always been a hot topic when it comes to coatings projects. There are some substrates that can be harder to specify due to not knowing without knowing which testing is relevant to specify and properly inspect the substrate and surface after it is coated. Concrete is probably the number one substrate that is confusing. This paper will dive into the testing that is relevant when specifying coatings for concrete tanks and structures. Whether it is how to properly check film build or whether or not an ASTM test is relevant, this paper will clear the waters and make specifying coatings for concrete tanks and structures easier.

This paper will discuss various considerations that should be weighed when writing a specification to line a concrete tank, secondary containment or industrial floor.
Successful repair material and coating applications are dependent on proper concrete surface preparation. Different surface preparation technologies and quality control methods are reviewed to increase the successful application of materials applied to existing concrete surfaces.
