Designed by renowned architect Cass Gilbert, the West Virginia State Capitol is undergoing its first comprehensive exterior rehabilitation since it was completed in 1932. Deterioration at this building can be traced to either poor original surface preparation or inappropriate and insufficient previous maintenance. This presentation will focus on the use of contemporary painted coatings to restore the gilded sheet metal dome and the polychromatic terra cotta cornices.

The “Weakest Link” on any structure is found at the nut and bolt assemblies. Nuts and bolts are found on every structure. “The fate of any complex steel assembly may be determined by the vulnerability of its smallest and least considered components”. “The bolts or fasteners holding the assembly together are often the areas where corrosion starts first and where the effects of corrosion may have the most serious consequences”.
Founded in 1888 and located in Media, PA (Delaware County), the Williamson Free School of Mechanical Trades is considered one of the finest trade colleges in the country. True to the School’s mission of preparing financially deserving young men to be useful and respected members of society, Williamson has a reputation for building men of skill and character.
The past 35 years have brought massive changes to the Protective Coatings industry. Increasing levels of regulatory oversight and the reduction in VOC emissions are among the more obvious impacts. However, change is also a reaction to the global trends occurring throughout the world: population growth, globalization/urbanization, climate change/global warming, the healthcare revolution and accelerated technology changes. All of these trends have and will continue to create new opportunities. How can our business model recognize and take advantage of these trends that create coatings opportunities?
Thermal Insulating Coatings are a relatively young technology but are gaining worldwide acceptance quickly due to their energy retention capabilities, easy application, ability to protect substrates, reducing maintenance and personnel protection costs. Not to be confused with reflective roof coatings, TICs use all 5 thermal dynamic blocking agents (or principles) to reduce thermal transfer between environments.
While a coating is typically measured in mils, a lining typically refers to an application of 1/16 inch or thicker. Certain industrial applications are best served through the use of a thick lining with unique physical properties that provide superior resistance against abrasion, impact, chemicals, and corrosion.
Fouling and corrosion of heat exchangers poses a challenge for oil and gas operators. Here we describe recent efforts to develop and deploy thin, sol-gel-derived coatings to mitigate fouling and promote continuous operation of exchangers without compromising heat transfer efficiency.
Today I am going to share results from a research project on Throughput Optimization (TPO). The focus of which was on a small subset of innovation variables in the overall workflow of a tank fabrication company servicing the oil and gas market. The data subset is based exclusively on protective coatings for the interior and exterior of API 12 Production Storage Tanks.
This standard provides a test method to evaluate coatings containing conductive carbon additives for use as an anode on atmospherically exposed reinforced concrete.
Test method to evaluate coatings w/conductive carbon pigmentation as Cathodic Protection (CP) anodes on atmospherically exposed reinforced concrete. Anode coatings are not to provide a protective barrier. HISTORICAL DOCUMENT
A laboratory test for determining the abrasion resistance of thin film (<10 mils (254 microns)) baked coatings/linings on the inner walls (bores) of oil field steel tubings by abrasion produced with falling sand. Historical Document 1986
Evaluation of the performance of offshore atmospheric and splash zone coating systems on platforms. Fixed-leg, semi-submersible, tension-leg, and floating production storage and offloading (FPSOs).
