This paper will discuss strategies for utilizing dehumidifiers and climate control equipment on blast and coat projects and will demonstrate how by their implementation, the contractor can be more successful by reducing overall job costs. We will take a brief look at the current core of climate control offerings. We will then examine how the manufactures of climate control equipment have tried to keep in step with the demands from the industry and of course, the customer.

This discussion covers the research, development, and implementation of a truly paperless job-site documentation and quality control app, featuring examples of its application on four US Navy shipyards.
The technical objective is to demonstrate low-cost solutions to improve building insulation and energy efficiency through the addition of exterior paint coatings.
At this very moment the equipment, infrastructure and facilities of this nation and of the Department of Defense (DoD) are under attack by a known enemy. This enemy has the ability to work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The damage, degradation, and deterioration caused by this enemy doesn’t happen overnight; it usually happens over an extended period of time and is often visible to us during the process. That enemy is corrosion!
In 2003 Connecticut Department of Transportation (DOT) conducted a study to quantify the throughput and cost savings potential of a PAS two-coat system versus a three-coat system. The study showed that a PAS two-coat system had a 31% increase in productivity and direct cost savings of approximately $6 per square foot, with indirect cost savings of $18 per square foot when including the benefits of reduced traffic congestion.17 PAS two-coat systems utilize a zinc-rich primer for galvanic protection; the epoxy and polyurethane layers are replaced by a high-build PAS topcoat.
The use of temporary climate control on a steel tank re-line has now become a regular practice within the coatings industry to help one avoid unplanned delays or issues on a project. This paper will discuss the issue from three perspectives: the coatings contractor, the tank owner and the inspector. It will explore the concept of using a temporary climate control systems on a tank re-line project in general, review how each segment would benefit from utilizing such a system and finally discuss the overall impact that a temporary climate control system will have on their projects.
