Coating Failures and Misapplications in Commercial Painting

Product Number: 41209-514-SG

Author: Raymond S. Tombaugh

Publication Date: 2009

$20.00

While commercial painting is often thought to be less rigorous or less technical than industrial painting, the commercial painting industry has its own set of demands on a coating and is not without its share of coating problems. The authors experience demonstrates that there are commonalities in failures of coatings in commercial painting.

Coating Failures on Painted Galvanized Mast Arms

Product Number: 41208-402-SG

Author: Paul Vinik, Richard A. Burgess

Publication Date: 2008

$20.00

Galvanized mast arms support uncounted numbers of traffic signals and signage throughout the United States. The proportion of these that have a “duplex” coating system (both galvanizing and organic coatings) is unknown. However, the number is surely significant, and the number of coating system failures is also significant.

Coatings Failures: Analysis and Solutions--Concrete

Product Number: 37680-POD

ISBN: 978-57590-431-3

$55.00

In this multi-author book, Coatings Failures: Analysis and Solutions--Concrete, coatings experts recall days in the field when they were faced with a concrete challenge involving premature coating failures, determined a cause, and developed a solution.

The six chapters include case studies on topics such as the blistering of tilt-up concrete, sodium silicates and their role in coating and finishing failures, slab curling, and more.

Combatting Localized Galvanic Corrosion at Bolted Connections in Gravity Sludge Thickeners and Clarifiers in Wastewater Treatment Plants

Product Number: 51220-269-SG

Author: R. A. Nixon

Publication Date: 2020

$20.00

This paper will describe this commonplace corrosion problem associated with protective coating damage at dissimilar metal bolted connections and present a typical case history. The paper will go on to explain why slotted bolt holes are more susceptible to more aggressive corrosion damage than round bolt holes. In addition, the paper will present successful measures that can be taken to prevent this prevalent problem.

Detailed Coatings Condition Assessment of Steel Bridges

Product Number: 41208-449-SG

Author: Robin Roi

Publication Date: 2008

$20.00

Financial resources for maintenance of coatings systems for owners of steel bridges are at a premium. Therefore, it is imperative to prioritize and choose the scope of services for maintenance painting of these structures in the most efficient manner. This paper will present the fundamental steps necessary for a detailed condition assessment of the existing coatings of steel bridges.

Don't Forget the Details When Specifying a Concrete Coating Project

Product Number: 51219-217-SG

Author: Sean Meracle, John Sierzega

Publication Date: 2019

$20.00

Many times, concrete coating projects are approached similarly to those of other paintable substrates, like steel or wood. The primary and sometimes only, focus is to provide a visibly clean and sound surface. More experienced design professionals will ensure that voids are filled, protrusions are ground to plane, and the correct surface profile is achieved. Once prepared, a serviceable coating system is applied (always as per the manufacturer’s recommendations) and no one looks back… unless there is a failure.

Effect of Surface Preparation of Coating Performance

Product Number: 41216-953-SG

Author: Devin Clark, Richard C. Ferguson & James W. Rawlins

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

Coating performance and longevity is highly dependent on the quality of substrate surface preparation. The effect of profile height, profile type (e.g., type of tool used to perform the prep, angularity of profile, etc.), extent of cleanliness, and amount of chloride contamination on coating performance were all studied to determine the correlation between these factors in an attempt to identify the primary factor in coating failure due to improper surface preparation.

Evaluation of a Crude Oil Loading Berth for Maintenance Coating

Product Number: 41207-353-SG

Author: Thomas J. Marchesani

Publication Date: 2007

$20.00

During FY2003, a feasibility study evaluated the condition of coatings on a crude oil loading berth, analyzed the ramifications of coating failure, and performed life cycle economic comparisons of maintenance coating alternatives. The subject paper presents a summary of the coating inspection results as well as an alternative method to determine the effect of coating failure and corrosion on marine loading berths.

Exterior Painting Restoration

Product Number: 41207-325-SG

Author: Robert Dufort

Publication Date: 2007

$20.00

The repair and restoration of deteriorated wood siding, trim, and ornamental plaster on the exteriors of older buildings is one of the cornerstones of what is called a “Painting Restoration”. From the symptoms of paint failure, one can determine the underlying causes, and then decide upon the proper cures.

Failure Analysis and PreventionThrough ISO 12944

Product Number: 41214-805-SG

Author: Gunnar Ackx

Publication Date: 2014

$20.00

This paper presents an in-sight to the standard “ISO 12944 – Corrosion Protection of Steel Structures by Protective Paint Systems”, from the angle of prevention of premature coating-failure, but also how the standard can be used to help analyze premature coating-failures (if and when a coating-project was done as per ISO 12944).

Failure Analysis of Paints and Coatings for Transmission & Distribution (T&D) Pipeline and Utility Structures Case Studies

Product Number: 41215-940-SG

Author: Mehrooz Zamanzadeh, George T. Bayer

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

In this paper failure analysis methodology will be applied to the principal mechanisms by which paints and coatings fail during service; with specific application to case studies involving T&D pipelines and utility structures. The case studies will apply standard failure analysis techniques to determine the primary causes and modes of failures.
