National Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) Surface Preparation and Coatings (SP&C) Panel 2016 Update

The paper is an overview of the National Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) Surface Preparation and Coating Panel’s (SP&C) mission to reduce the cost of construction, maintenance, and repair of US Navy ships. The Panel’s “Specs to Decks” approach; research, evaluate, develop, and sustain current and emerging technologies that will reduce cost and maintain or enhance quality, serves as a rudder that guides the Panel’s performance. This review will provide a summary of the Panel and a look at some of its implemented, current, and proposed projects.

The Panel’s “Specs to Decks” approach; research, evaluate, develop, and sustain current and emerging technologies that will reduce cost and maintain or enhance quality, serves as a rudder that guides the Panel’s performance. This review will provide a summary of the Panel and a look at some of its implemented, current, and proposed projects. The utilization of Retention of Pre-Construction Primer (PCP) and Robust Paperless Paint (Phase I) will allow Shipyards to reduce the cost of coating ships and improve the documentation of work done during the coatings process. Robust Paperless Paint (Phase II) and the utilization of the Latest Digital Inspection Tools will ensure that Shipyards and their Crafts Workers have the tools needed to meet requirements, while enhancing the coatings process by reducing human intervention and/or errors. The proposed projects: Implementation of Robust Functional Paperless Paint, Cleaning Polysiloxane Topside Coatings, Visual Work Instructions for Coatings, and Boomlift Carried Environmental Enclosure will further enable the NSRP’s Shipyards (see Figure 1 below) by continuing to improve their processes and overall performance, while sharing lessons learned and best practices. The focus of these efforts are to reduce the cost of shipbuilding while maintaining quality.
