As part of the national research project OWS-MV (Offshore Wind Solutions-MecklenburgVorpommern), investigations were carried out to assess effects of mechanical stresses on the corrosion protection performance of coatings for offshore wind turbines (OWEA). In order to simulate typical damage mechanisms during transport and assembly of OWEA, compression, impact and abrasion tests and corrosion resistance tests were performed on laboratory scales.
As part of the national research project OWS-MV (Offshore Wind Solutions-MecklenburgVorpommern), investigations were carried out to assess effects of mechanical stresses on the corrosion protection performance of coatings for offshore wind turbines (OWEA). In order to simulate typical damage mechanisms during transport and assembly of OWEA, compression, impact and abrasion tests and corrosion resistance tests were performed on laboratory scales. In order to categorize the intensity of damages, the mechanical tests were carried out on three load levels. Statistical methods were applied to assess and evaluate the performance of 15 different coating systems.
The paper provides a review about the corrosion and corrosion protection of offshore wind energy devices (OWEA) with a focus on the support structure. Firstly, special features resulting from location and operation of wind energy devices offshore are being discussed. This includes the definition of a load collective. Secondly, types of corrosion and corrosion phenomena are summarized in a systematic way.

Utility scale solar array construction projects continue to grow in number annually. Large open spaces with consistent UV exposure often make excellent locations for solar array fields, however these sites do not always provide ideal soil conditions for the steel H beam pile supports which are embedded into the ground.
This paper gives an update on the latest developments of the new generation of waterborne Polyurethane Topcoats (PU topcoats) for flooring which were presented during the annual SSPC meeting October 2003. Topcoats are commonly used in the construction industry over functional floor coatings or as sealers for concrete.
