Steel surfaces will be prepared in accordance with standards for Near-White Metal Blast Cleaning (SSPC-SP 10/NACE No. 2) and tested for soluble salt with as-needed chloride remediation. Steel will be recoated with a three-coat system consisting of organic-rich zinc primer, epoxy intermediate and urethane finish, selected from NEPCOAT List B.
Concrete surfaces will reportedly require preparation by high-pressure water jetting, specifically 698 square yards of hydrodemolition, as well as scarification.
Containment according to SSPC-Guide 6 and waste disposal according to Guide 7 are required, along with certifications for SSPC-QP 1, QP 2 and QP 3.
The contractor will also oversee joint sealing, special mortar and concrete repairs, milling and paving, drainage work and miscellaneous site work.
The owner-approved manufacturers for this project include Ameron (PPG), Carboline, Wasser, Sherwin-Williams and International Paint.
