This paper discusses the use of Master Painter Institute (MPI) paint standards and systems to select and procure paints for the protection and beautification of commercial buildings. Background on MPI and an explanation of how to use its paint standards is provided, along with instructions for using MPI manuals to choose coating systems for building environments.
The intent of the nuclear supplement to the relevant SSPC QP contractor certification programs is to certify contractors and paint shops to perform work in and for nuclear facilities that require an enhanced level of quality assurance / quality control requirements and nuclear safety culture awareness for surface preparation and painting activities. SSPC will expand the current QP certification to include the assessment of capabilities of SSPC certified firms to provide coating services to the nuclear power industry based on ANSI and ASTM standards as well as NRC guidelines.

The use of duplex coating systems (hot dip galvanizing or thermal spray coating with one or more liquid-applied coatings) for long term protection of structural steel is becoming more mainstream in many industries. This paper describes the advantages of employing duplex coating systems as well as some important considerations for designers prior to specifying their use. It also highlights an ongoing initiative to help agencies more efficiently and effectively use duplex coatings on steel bridges by developing guidelines, standards, and other materials.
