Case Study

Pipe Bridge Restoration with Plasmet ZF



Structurally dangerous pipe bridge restored to ‘as new’ condition.

 

Client

Water & waste industry, UK.

 

Scope of Work 

A full structural survey was carried out, revealing that extensive repair work was required on pipe bridge. Corrocoat carried out this repair schedule, and fully corrosion protected the bridge to ensure extended maintenance free life for the future.

 

Products 

 

Coating System

  • Grit blast to IS0 8501-1 cleanliness standard SA 21/2.
  • All joints encapsulated using Corrocoat’s Polyglass material.
  • Total structure and externals of the pipe were treated with two coats of Plasmet ZF and a top coat of Plasmet ZX.

 

Coating Credentials 

In 1999 Corrocoat went back to the pipe bridge to ascertain the success of the refurbishment work and assess the performance of the coating systems. The coating was still in excellent condition ensuring the bridge will remain structurally sound for many years.
