General Specification for Shop Priming and Painting 25713-220-3PS-NX00-00002-000

SCOPE 1.1 This specification covers the minimum requirements for shop priming and painting for the different areas within the project. Its scope covers the surface preparation, priming, and painting of engineered equipment, structural steel and shop fabricated piping. The terms "Shop Priming" and "Painting" define the extent of the SELLER's painting responsibility prior to his release of the equipment to the BUYER. The term "shop" does not limit the work location to the SELLER's shop, since the work may be performed at a subcontractor's or supplier's facility under the SELLER's shop control. However, this specification does not apply to field painting at the jobsite. 1.2 The following surfaces shall be prepared and painted by SELLER in accordance with the Coating Schedule (section 7.0 of this Specification), unless otherwise noted: 1.2.1 1.2.2 1.2.3 1.2.4 1.3 Structural and miscellaneous steel items, including ladders, platforms, handrails, grating, beams, columns, stairs, clips, brackets and supports. Exterior surfaces of carbon-steel tanks, vessels, platework, exposed ductwork, apparatus and piping unless noted below. In general, all exposed non-machined surfaces of carbon steel or cast iron. Machinery, motors, electrical and control panels, valves and equipment.

Machinery, motors, electrical and control panels, valves, instruments, and equipment may be prepared and painted according to Manufacturer's standard procedures, if those procedures provide a coating system suitable for the intended service conditions, as determined by BUYER. The following surfaces shall not be painted: 1.4.1 Nonferrous metal such as: aluminum, copper, or brass. 1.4.2 1.4.3 1.4.4 1.4.5 Stainless or alloy steel, except under thermal insulation.

Potential problems that require a design modification shall be brought to BUYERs attention before proceeding. Steel surfaces other than bolts, nuts, and washers, shall be hot dipped galvanized in accordance with ASTM A123 to obtain a minimum of 1.0 oz of zinc on each galvanized surface. This will provide a draft film thickness of 43 microns (1.7 mils) for the zinc coating. Nuts, bolts, washers, and miscellaneous steel hardware shall be hot dip galvanized in accordance with ASTM A153. Female threaded openings shall be re-tapped after galvanizing. Bolts and other items with male threads shall not be re-tapped. Fabricated assemblies shall be totally immersed in the zinc bath. Dipping of assemblies in more than one operation is not allowed. Zinc coatings shall be free of voids, blisters, flux spots, inclusions, dross, acid, and black spots. The zinc shall be well adhered to the steel so that it may not be removed during normal handling and erection activities. Lumps, globules, or heavy deposits of zinc that could interfere with the assembly operation or the parts intended use are not allowed.
