Steelwork Corrosion Control by D.A. Bayliss,D.H. Deacon Pdf
Steelwork Corrosion Control is a comprehensive revision and updating of a similar book by the authors, published in 1985. As with the previous book, it is designed principally for engineers, architects and designers for whom the protection of structural steelwork is an important, albeit a comparatively minor, part of their total professional activities. New materials are being developed constantly by the coatings industry and the number of standards, codes of practice and publications has grown to a stage where it has become increasingly difficult for non-specialists to keep abreast of the situation. The book is to sets out the basic and old-established requirements and at the same time draw attention to recent developments such as long-life coatings, new International Standards on surface preparation, new methods and standards of quality control and the increased awareness of health and safety factors. The book is not intended to be a comprehensive textbook on coating technology but rather as a guide to the principles involved and methods of achieving sound steel protection.
