CASE STUDY
Bridge Refurbishment
OVERVIEW
Heavily corroded underside of road bridge required refurbishment with minimal disturbance to the public and with minimum 10 years guarantee.
CHALLENGE
Working in a very damp environment, to a limited timescale and no grit blasting permitted.
SOLUTION
One coat of Epo-chem™ RS 500P surface/wet tolerant epoxy system @ 150µ by brush and roller. Second coat of Epo-chem™ RC 500GTC epoxy acrylic topcoat @ 80µ by brush and roller.
OUTCOME
The technical benefits offered by this system ensured that the work was carried out on time, within budget, with no H&S issues and no major delays. Since then, this system has been proposed for a number of similar applications within the council.
BENEFITS
• Solvent-free main coat
• No blasting required
• No major delays to program
• Reduced cost of plant and equipment
• Reduced H&S and Fire Precaution
