Time, Money and Tank Linings

Product Number: 41215-882-SG

Author: Miles Buckhurst

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

What is the cost of Tank Linings? Are we able to answer this properly, do we take into account all the factors, and do we see the main cost driver? It is a well known fact that time is money, and if we take into account the cost of being out of service or a delay in beginning operations then the cost of time is far greater than individual costs of producing equipment and coating them.

Ultra High Pressure Waterjetting as a Means of Surface Preperation for Marine Coatings Systems

Product Number: 41206-218-SG

Author: David P. Allerton, Nicole S. Bokisa, Brian S. Skerry

Publication Date: 2006

$20.00

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of an ultra-high pressure (UHP) waterjetting surface preparation (>25,000 psi) on the performance properties of select marine/offshore coating epoxy systems. Uncoated steel panels had been allowed to rust in an outdoor atmospheric environment and then were subjected to UHP waterjetting

Unique Application of an Epoxy Repair Gel to Eliminate Draft Tube Surface Wear and Cavitation, potentially Improving Turbine Power Generation Efficiency

Product Number: 41216-976-SG

Author: Norm Klapper

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

A unique project was completed in Mid-2014 at the Powerhouse #3, Turbine Unit #23 refurbishment, Grand Coulee Dam, located in Washington State. The project scope includes a complete overhaul of the turbine bearings, windings, and critical components. As part of the overall scope, the contractor was charged with the task of coating the entire draft tube surface with an epoxy gel. The Bureau of Reclamation, based in Denver, Colorado, had conducted a site survey which indicated severe wear lines, which result in cavitation and the accompanying backpressure on the exiting water outflow to the Columbia River.

Unique Design and Award Selection Process (The re-painting of a 54-story building)

Product Number: 41211-648-SG

Author: Bernard W. Koblinsky, Kirk R. Shields

Publication Date: 2011

$20.00

The BNY Mellon faced the considerable challenge of repainting the exterior of the 54-story, metal sided One Mellon Center located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Located in the heart of the downtown, traditional methods of surface preparation and coating application were not viable options. BNY Mellon took the unusual approach of designing the entire project, from the means and methods, to equipment & staging versus the more traditional process of letting a painting contractor design the work sequence and approach.

Using Lead Abatement Contractors for Surface Preparation on Commercial Properties - The Consequences of Sacrificing Quality for Safety

Product Number: 51216-012-SG

Author: Raymond S. Tombaugh

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

The Federal EPA requires that commercial/residential painting contractors be certified to prepare surfaces containing lead based paint on residential and public structures. As a result, when respirators equipped with HEPA filtration are required to be worn to reduce worker exposure levels to below the permissible exposure limit for lead, the surface preparation work is often subcontracted to a licensed lead abate contractor who holds these types of certifications.
