Appendix A of the AISC Specification for Structural Joints Using High Strength Bolts published by the Research Council on Structural Connections describes the testing methods to determine the slip coefficient of coatings used in bolted connections. This paper describes the importance of establishing the slip coefficient of faying surfaces and presents the “soup‐to‐nuts” process associated with testing and certifying coatings used in slip‐critical connections ‐ from test panel fabrication to surface preparation, coating application (including thinning, thickness and curing variables), selection of mating surfaces, testing for resistance to slip and tension creep, and data reporting, including A, B and C classifications. Data from various generic coating types previously tested is presented, and research needs are described. Finally, the importance of application and curing of the coating in the shop or field according to the variables employed during testing and certification is reinforced.

This paper will explore the concept of a “Standard of Care” as applied to coating inspection on industrial coatings projects. Establishing a “Standard of Care” for coating inspection sets an expectation for those providing, procuring or otherwise interacting with inspectors on an industrial coatings job.

Silicone alkyds have been utilized by the Navy for over 50 years and remain the only single-component technology that is qualified under MIL-PRF-24635. Although the predominant coating in the Fleet, silicone alkyd coatings continue to provide poor color and gloss retention, poor chemical resistance, low hardness, slow cure times and limited cleanability to running rust.
