NORDURAL STANDARD TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION FOR SURFACE TREATMENT AND PAINTING 1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 GENERAL This specification sets out the minimum requirements and the standards for surface treatment and painting of all steel parts and steelwork. In this Document the following words and expressions shall have the meaning hereby assigned to them except where the context otherwise requires: Engineer: The Owner or any person or organization employed or engaged at any time by the Owner and authorized by the Owner, in writing, from time to time to act on behalf of the Owner in the execution of the items covered by this Document, in whole or in any part, for any or all purposes provided in this Technical Specification. Owner: Norurl hf (Nordic Aluminum Corporation Ltd.), an independent legal entity owned by Century Aluminum.

1.2 WEATHER The Site weather conditions combining high humidity and low temperatures, briny air with a large amount of SO2 and sands, require that steelwork be given a high degree of protection, and the treatment described in this specification has proven to be successful if correctly carried out. The atmospheric-corrosivity category is assumed to be C5-M (very high) Marine. 2. STANDARDS All materials, workmanship and practices shall be in accordance with the current issue of the Standards listed below. Use of other national and international Standards is subject to advance approval by the Engineer. EN ISO 12944. PARTS 1-8: 1998 EN ISO 11124. PARTS 1-4: 1997 EN ISO 11126. PARTS 1-10: 1997 NORURL

WARRANTY The Contractor shall obtain a warranty in favor of both the Owner and the Contractor on a joint and several basis from an authorized representative of either the paint manufacturer or the applicator who shall have been approved by the manufacturer guaranteeing that the conditions of the outdoor painted surfaces shall be no worse than condition Ri 1, as defined in EN ISO 4628-3, after two years and not more blisters than defined as smaller and less dense than 1 and size 1 according to ISO 4628-2. No flaking of the paint layers is allowed for a period of two (2) years from the date of issue of the last Acceptance Certificate. The guarantee shall contain an undertaking to carry out any treatment necessary to restore the paintwork at no cost to the Owner should the paintwork condition be worse than specified at any time during the two (2) year period. 4. CLEANING AND PAINTING OF THE WORK (a) Immediately following the Letter of Award, the Contractor shall submit a quality assurance program for approval by the Engineer. All paints for the outdoor equipment in the Contract shall be provided by one manufacturer and preferably manufactured in one country to ensure compatibility. All painting of outdoor equipment shall be carried out strictly in accordance with the paint system manufacturer's recommendations by an applicator on the manufacturer's approved list. The application shall be monitored at the Site and approved, in writing, by an authorized representative of either the paint manufacturer or the applicator who shall be approved by the manufacturer. 2004-08-30.

(b)

The painting of the Works shall be carried out in accordance with the appropriate standard in this Specification. The work is generally covered by the standards, but where particular items are not referred to specifically, such items shall be treated in a manner similar to other comparable items as agreed with the Engineer. The standards of surface preparations and painting are intended to give a minimum life of ten to fifteen years in a coastal environment, with need for only minor remedial work in that period. The Engineer is prepared to consider alternative paint schemes to meet the requirements of fabrication using modern automated materials handling systems, provided they offer the same quality of surface protection and service life as those intended by the standards. All planished and bright parts shall be coated with grease, oil or other approved rust preventative before dispatch and during erection. This protective coating shall be cleaned off and the parts polished before being handed over to the Engineer. Steel sections and plates shall be free from surface flaws and laminations prior to blast cleaning and shall not be in worse conditions than Pictorial Standard B, Swedish Standard SIS 055900. Abrasive materials shall be in accordance with EN ISO 11124 and EN ISO 11126. Where lapped or butted joints form part of an assembly which is assembled or partly assembled before final painting, the jointed surfaces shall be cleaned, free from all scales, loose rust, dirt, salts and grease, and given one brush-applied coat of zinc phosphate primer before assembly. Surfaces or coatings which have been subjected to dirt, grease, dust, salts, etc. shall be cleaned prior to application of an additional paint layer. The surface or old coating must have a faultless binding to the under layer, which shall not be affected by the additional layer. The entire surface must be prepared by hand using detergents, which do not harm the environment and do not cause corrosion. Prior to application of any new coating, the surface shall be cleaned in accordance with the most current instructions of the coating material manufacturer. If instructions are not provided, the surfaces shall be cleaned by hand and washed with hot water at a temperature of approximately 50C, which is applied at a pressure of 100-150 bar. It may be necessary to revise these figures according to the coating system used or the conditions of application. In all cases it is necessary to consult the instructions of the coating material manufacturer. Paint shall not be applied to surfaces, which are superficially or structurally damp, and condensation must be absent before the application of each coat. 2004-08-30. REV. C5

(j)

Painting shall not be carried out under adverse weather conditions, such as low temperatures (below 4C), or above 90% relative humidity during rain or fog, or when the surface temperature is less than 3C above the dew point. Priming coats of paint shall not be applied until the surfaces have been inspected and the Engineer has approved preparatory work. All paints shall be applied by brush or roller, and then brushed or sprayed in accordance with the paint schedule, except for priming coats for steel floors, galleries, and stairways where dipping is permitted. Where paint is to be applied by spraying, the applicator shall demonstrate that the spray technique employed does not produce paint films containing vacuoles or shadows where the paint is thin.

(k) (l)

(m) All paint film thicknesses are specified as mean values and refer to the dry film condition. No measurement shall be lower than 20% below the mean value. Not more than 20% of the measurements are allowed under the mean value. All thicknesses shall be determined by the correct use of approved commercial paint film thickness measuring meters. (n) On sheltered or unventilated horizontal surfaces on which dew may linger, more protection is needed. To achieve this, an additional top coat of paint shall be applied that is equal in thickness and finish to the previous coat. The standards differentiate between "Treatment at Maker's Works" and "Treatment at Site after Completion of Erection" but the locations at which different stages of the treatments are carried out may be modified, always provided that each change is specifically agreed to by the Engineer, and the painting is finished or made good at the Site to the Engineer's satisfaction. The standards also refer to "Indoor" and "Outdoor" locations. In this context all "Indoor" rooms and buildings without air conditioning, heating or forced ventilation shall be treated as "Outdoor". No consecutive coats of paint, except in the case of white, should be the same shade. Thinners shall not be used except with the written agreement by the paint manufacturer or the Engineer. The Contractor shall generally provide finished colors that match, as near as is practical, the colours of similar items in the existing installation. All outdoor and indoor painting shall be inspected in accordance with Chapter 3: Warranty prior to issue of the Final Acceptance Certificate.
