This paper will explore the concept of a “Standard of Care” as applied to coating inspection on industrial coatings projects. Establishing a “Standard of Care” for coating inspection sets an expectation for those providing, procuring or otherwise interacting with inspectors on an industrial coatings job.

Shot blasting as a mechanical surface preparation process is widely used in finishing metallic parts. Sophistication in the use of this technique could range from simple manual systems to computer-controlled equipment for preparing aerospace and automotive components.
Bridge painting in the Northeast part of the country can be a challenge for the owner, their inspection staff and the contractor. Much the same as living in the northeast though a harsh winter, if planning and preparations are not done it could be a long cold season.
Coating performance is related to the profile height on a steel surface. Three types of devices are available to take measurements of this surface profile: replica tape, depth micrometers fitted with pointed probes, and stylus roughness testers. This paper presents results from a recent analysis of measurements taken by the three device types on steel blasted with an assortment of blast media and proposes a new method of depth micrometer measurement called average of the maximum peaks.
This session will consist of an overview of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality Small Business and Local Government Assistance program which provides numerous tools and resources to help the regulated surface coating community comply with environmental regulations. It will also include information on the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants, and updates to coating checklists and regulatory requirements.
The use of accelerated laboratory artificial weathering in coatings development is necessitated by the lengthy times required for natural outdoor weathering. Across a broad range of industries, weathering results from materials exposed in subtropical South Florida have become the benchmark to which accelerated test methods are compared.
Aerospace Coatings is rapidly becoming more complex as a technical discipline. Professional certification of Aerospace Coatings Technicians, to an industry standard, is now possible and going forward, should not be regarded as optional for Aerospace Coatings operations.
The University of Kentucky’s Kentucky Transportation Center (KTC) is working with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) and the structural steel coating industry to develop a revolutionary tool to aid in the inspection of protective coatings applied to steel structures.
Over the past 35 years in I have had the opportunity to witness the good the bad and ugly in the coatings business, primarily industrial and marine but in the last 15 years have included commercial and residential via the consulting, failure analysis and expert witness testimony endeavors.
When it comes to roofing, after the expected service life of individual products, the most common attribute that is used to describe the performance is often the solar reflectivity. Solar reflectivity is the percentage of solar energy that is reflected from the roof surface instead of being absorbed into the roof and building as a whole.
