Coatings Failures: Analysis and Solutions: Infrastructure

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.
