Time Tested Performance of Bridge Coatings

The purpose of this study was to determine the actual service life of some commonly used bridge coating systems. A study authored by Gordon H. Brevoort and updated by KTA-Tator, Inc. in 1996 (1) provided a table of projected service life based largely on a survey of coating manufacturers. Are industry wide predictions of coating life accurate?

Brevoort and updated by KTA-Tator, Inc. in 1996 (1) provided a table of projected service life based largely on a survey of coating manufacturers. Are industry wide predictions of coating life accurate? That is the central issue this study examined. The results may help bridge owners select coating protection that provides the lowest life cycle cost. Bridge owners may also find the information useful to pro-rate the remaining value of the coating system and to plan maintenance activities.
