1.2 Painting and Galvanizing

1.2.1 General
All ferrous metal work is to be provided with an effective galvanized or painted
finish with the exception of ferrous sections that are to be fully encased in concrete.
Paint or Galvanizing shall not be applied before tanks and chambers have passed
any required pressure or vacuum tests. Surfaces, which are in contact with oil, shall
not be galvanized.
Precautions shall be taken to prevent corrosion occurring in the period of time
between cleaning of the steel and commencing the painting.
All drilling, punching, cutting, bending and welding of parts shall be completed and
all burrs shall be removed before painting or galvanizing.
A full description of the painting and/or galvanizing systems proposed shall be
provided in the Tender and these shall conform to the specified standards.

1.2.2 Unpainted Ferrous Components

Coating with an approved anti-rusting composition shall appropriately protect
unpainted ferrous components liable to corrosion during transport.
Prior to embedding in concrete all ferrous surfaces shall be free from any oil, grease,
paint and any other matter which will reduce the bond between the encasing
concrete and the ferrous surface, Surfaces shall be brushed and scraped to remove
loose mill scale, flaking rust, etc.

1.2.3 Painted Ferrous Components

Ferrous components shall be painted in accordance with BS 5493 or equivalent
national standard. The paint treatment for each application shall be selected from the
following.
a) For Ferrous items exposed to weather:
Blast clean to BS 7079 Part AI, Sa 2 1/2 and degrease surface.
Paint in accordance with BS 5493, Table 3 Part 3 (exposed polluted coastal
atmosphere) for a maintenance period of 10 - 20 years. The paint selected shall be
of an oil resistant nature.
b) For ferrous items located indoors.
Blast clean to BS.7079 Part A1, Sa 2 and degrease surface.
Paint in accordance with BS.5493, Table 3 Part 7 (interior frequently damp or wet)
for a maintenance period of 10 - 20 years. The paint selected shall be of an oil
resistant nature.
c) For internal surfaces of tanks, pipes, radiators, etc., which are to contain oil
Blast clean to BS.7079 Part A1, Sa 2 1/2 and degrease surface.
Further treatment shall be in accordance with BS.5493 Table 3 Part 16.
Paint shall be applied to produce a uniform film. Edges, corners, crevices, welds,
bolts, and rivets shall receive special attention to maintain the required thickness.
Sufficient quantity of each type and colour of finish coat as applied to the major
equipment items are to be provided for "touch up" purposes.

1.2.4 Galvanized Components
The hot dipped process in accordance with BS shall apply galvanizing. 729 (1971)
(1994)
The molten metal in the galvanizing bath should contain no less than 98.5% by
weight of zinc. The coating shall be smooth, continuous and free from flux stain and
defects. The coating shall adhere without pealing or flaking.
Galvanized coating weights shall be as given in the above standard.
It is the responsibility of the Manufacturer to ensure that fabrication and pre-
treatment does not cause adverse effects on the material as well as the coating.
In order to ensure these requirements complete familiarization with the above
Standard is a pre-requisite.
The manufacturer shall possess or have readily available access to perform all testing
requirements contained in the above Standard.
