Concrete surface preparation differs from surface preparation of steel, mostly due to the inherent properties of concrete.
Concrete is a non-uniform mixture of porous, permeable materials (cement, sand, stone, additives, water) with low tensile strength and often numerous cracks and defects. It will vary in properties, including moisture content, from site to site and within any site due to the batched nature of its production and installation.
Ranging from the basics of corrosion in reinforced concrete to using forensic science to determine concrete coatings failure, in this Standards and Best Practice for Surface Preparation and Coating Application of Concrete reference book, students and technicians learn problem solving via multiple case studies and technical artiles.
This paper will discuss various considerations that should be weighed when writing a specification to line a concrete tank, secondary containment or industrial floor.

In this multi-author book, Coatings Failures: Case Studies in Analysis and Solutions-Infrastructure, coatings experts recall days in the field when they were faced with a problem, such as premature coating failures, determined a cause, and developed a solution.
The six chapters include case studies on topics such as how alkyd paints should never be used on steel that is intended for immersion service; how important it is to remember buildings such as coal-fired power plants have many different types of piping, structures, and other areas that operate at different temperatures, with many different functions; how when evaluating peeling paint on structures such as pedestrian bridges, it is always a good idea to do some adhesion testing in areas that appear to be non-failing; and more.
In this multi-author book, Coatings Failures: Analysis and Solutions--Floors, coatings experts recall days in the field when they were faced with a challenge involving premature coating failures on floors, determined a cause, and developed a solution.
The six chapters include case studies on floor coating failures ranging from basketball courrts, animal shelters, industrial marijuana-growing facility, and more.
