Repair and maintenance of painted steel structures

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Regular maintenance and inspection are crucial for ensuring the effectiveness of surface treatments on painted steel structures. This document provides guidelines for maintaining and repairing such structures.
Maintenance Schedule
Initial inspection should occur approximately one year after treatment, followed by biennial inspections. Key inspection points include:
  • Blisters in the paint
  • Damage in the paint
  • Corrosive attacks
Based on these inspections, determine maintenance needs and schedule future inspections. Consider repainting the entire structure every 8-10 years, depending on corrosion exposure.
Spot Repairs
Spot repairs are necessary when rust levels reach Ri 1-Ri 3 (ISO 4628-3:1982). Steps include:
  • Scraping flaking paint and damaged areas
  • Shot blasting or steel brushing affected areas
  • Applying primer and topcoat to original film thickness
For aesthetic purposes, a final topcoat can be applied to the entire surface after cleaning and matting.
Repainting
Complete repainting is required when rust levels reach Ri 4-Ri 5. The process involves:
  • Sandblasting the entire surface to Sa 2½
  • Applying a new paint system
  • Repairing the zinc layer with Temazink 99 if necessary
