Coatings for steel piling in sea water
Results of 6- and 30-mo exposure tests of selected protective coating systems for steel sheet and "H" piling, conducted by U S Navy, are discussed in terms of most effective systems and ratings; candidate systems were aluminum vinyl, vinyl mastic, saran, flame-sprayed zinc wire, cold applied coal tar, mica-filled asphalt emulsion, neoprene brushing composition, and phenolic mastic; principal coating damage was severe abrasion by backwashing action of seawater and sand slurry just above mudline; all systems tested showed some deterioration after 30 mo exposure in surf.
