Corrosion on steel bridges has long been recognized as a major concern. Over the years, technology has advanced from lead-based paints used for a century to three-coat systems. Recently, two-coat systems have been developed and are gaining acceptance. Research which is now underway to develop a one-coat system is described in this paper, along with the results of the Phase 1 testing which has been completed.
Operational and maintenance requirements have required improved decking systems, particularly non-skid, to be incorporated within the US Navy. For those who have experienced rough seas and foul weather, the importance of good non-skid (or slip resistant) deck coverings on weather decks becomes very apparent. But what defines “good” may be easier to qualify rather than quantify. This is directly related to the methodologies employed to evaluate slip resistance of these surfaces and other deck systems

Significant quality control/quality assurance data is collected during industrial coating projects. Too often this data is surveyed for compliance with the contract requirements and then relegated to a file cabinet, never to be seen again. The paper highlights the types of coating inspection data collected and various “value-added” analyses which may be performed.
For several decades, engineered coatings have been used to protect steel from corrosion. Many formulas were made and tested for their ability to prevent corrosion. Changes in the formulas would include different resins, pigments, solvents and additives. In this paper, we will talk about three specific pigments, which are also commonly referred to as reinforcing pigments.
