Structures are made of different substrates and materials. In order to protect these structures from the impact of corrosion, virtually everything is coated with some combination of paints, lacquers, epoxies, and thermoplastics. Inspecting structures requires multiple types of tests including measuring the thickness of a wide variety of protective coatings. This paper will discuss flexible measurement devices and how the utilization of various probes provides the best measurement results for specific applications.
Measuring physical parameters such as coating thickness, surface profile, and dew point is a common task for inspectors and applicators. However, those measurements are only as accurate as the instrument that performs them. Even high-quality electronic instruments can yield incorrect measurements.

Many modern electronic gauges have the capability for transmitting or uploading data to a computer via a data port. This can mean transferring the data to a spreadsheet for customized analysis or to a data management software package for analysis using standard statistical methods. This paper describes the format of the data for a range of gauges used for the coating inspection process including surface profile determination, climatic condition monitoring and coating thickness measurement.
