Practical Considerations for the Life Cycle Evaluation of Zinc Rich Coatings Galvanized Steel and Thermal Sprayed Metals for Industrial Structures in Moderate Environmental Exposures

This paper provides an objective review of the life cycle costs of zinc-rich coating systems used in moderate industrial exposure environments. The coating systems include conventional inorganic/organic coatings, galvanizing, and thermal sprayed metal coatings (metallizing). Service life and installation cost data from previous studies is used to calculate the life cycle costs over a specified design life of an industrial structure.

This paper provides an objective review of the life cycle costs of zinc-rich coating systems used in moderate industrial exposure environments. The coating systems include conventional inorganic/organic coatings, galvanizing, and thermal sprayed metal coatings (metallizing). Service life and installation cost data from previous studies is used to calculate the life cycle costs over a specified design life of an industrial structure. The life cycle costs are based on a suggested maintenance painting sequence that is outlined. A review of the costs for both shop and field coating application are discussed.
