This bulletin provides guidelines for building owners, specifiers, building contractors and painters. This Bulletin replaces numbers 253 (1987), Maintenance Painting of Coated Steel Structures. The protection of steel exposed to exterior corrosion is a complex and extensive subject. This bulletin only covers the critical factors to be considered when assessing the materials and the standard of work necessary for the maintenance of steelwork in buildings. Some detailed advice is given on the maintenance of smaller work, but for all major maintenance projects reference should be made to: AS/NZS 2312:1994 Guide to the protection of iron and steel against exterior atmospheric corrosion; paint manufacturers.
This paper is intended to assist those responsible for mitigating corrosion on existing structures. The following factors involved in maintenance painting are discussed: (1) degree of destruction of existing coatings that can be allowed before repainting is required; (2) determination of the most economical surface preparation; (3) selection of the paint system which gives the most economical performance; (4) preparation of specifications covering the work to be done; and (5) inspection of the cleaning and painting operation.

This synthesis will be of interest to state department of transportation (DOT) bridge maintenance engineers, coating specialists, chemists, and researchers. Manufacturers and suppliers of corrosion protection products and systems for exposed structural steel on existing bridges will also find it of interest. This synthesis describes current practice regarding maintenance and protection strategies for exposed structural steel on existing bridges. NCHRP Synthesis 251, Lead-Based Paint Removal for Steel Highway Bridges ( 1997), provides a complementary and more in-depth treatment of maintenance issues involving lead-based paint removal. This report of the Transportation Research Board defines the maintenance management systems and decision making criteria used by transportation agencies for maintaining exposed bridge steel. Material selection criteria, surface preparation and application practices, quality control and quality assurance programs, and funding mechanisms are discussed in detail. The impact of recent and proposed environmental and worker protection regulations on current practice is reported. Information for the synthesis was collected by surveying state transportation agencies and by conducting a literature search. Responses to the survey, Appendix C to this document, are published on the Internet as NCHRP Web Document 11.
Engineers on major building projects continue to echo the sentiment that "painting amounts to 10% of the job, but provides 90% of the problems". This second edition of Steelwork Corrosion Control provides sound advice and authoritative guidance on the principles involved and methods of achieving sound steel protection. Taking into account the considerable developments in the paint protection industry, Steelwork Corrosion Control has been comprehensively updated to include new materials and coating systems, and the number of new ISO / BS / European standards and codes of practice on paints and painting, health and safety, and environmental issues. It is a must-have guide for engineers, architects and designers for whom the protection of structural steelwork is an important, albeit relatively minor, part of their professional activities. David Deacon is the President Elect of the Institute of Corrosion and a Fellow of FTCS (Fellowship of Technical Service Coating). Derek Bayliss is a Past President of the Institute of Corrosion and has served as Chairman of BS 5493 (concerned with coating strucures against corrosion).
