22、 and 5.3),4.1.5 Requirements for patching material (5.4.2),4.1.6 Quantity of patching material,4.1.7 Specific requirements for test frequency (9.1),4.1.8 Whether a report on tests performed on the coatedsteel reinforcing bars being furnished is required (14),4.1.9 Requirements for inspection (12.1),

23、 and4.1.10 Manufacturer qualification and certification require-ments (if any).NOTE 2It is recommended that the coating application procedures andprocesses be audited by an independent certification program for epoxycoating applicator plants such as that provided by the Concrete Reinforc-ing Steel I

24、nstitute, or equivalent.NOTE 3A typical ordering description is as follows: Deformed Grade420 bars to ASTM A615M_; 6000 m, No. 19, 12 m long in securedlifts with sufficient spacers or padding, or both; epoxy-coated to ASTMA775M_; including written certifications for the powder coatingand coated bars

25、, and 1 L of patching material.Deformed Grade 60 bars to ASTM A615M_; 20 000 ft, No. 6,40 ft 0 in. long in secured lifts with sufficient spacers or padding, or both;epoxy-coated to ASTM A775_; including written certifications forthe powder coating and coated bars, and 1 qt of patching material.5. Ma

26、terials5.1 Steel reinforcing bars to be coated shall meet therequirements of one of the following specifications: A615M,A706M, or A996M A615, A706, or A996, as specified by thepurchaser and shall be free of contaminants such as oil, grease,or paint.NOTE 4Prior to coating, the steel reinforcing bars

27、should be inspectedfor their suitability for coating. Bars with sharp edges on the deformations,rolled-in slivers, or other surface imperfections are difficult to coatproperly and should not be coated. The coating will flow away from thesharp edges and may result in inadequate coating thickness at t

28、hese points.5.2 The powder coating shall meet the requirements ofAnnex A1.

30、trolled environment following the written recommenda-tions of the powder coating manufacturer until ready for use.At that point, if the storage temperature is below the plantambient temperature, the powder coating shall be given suffi-cient time to reach approximate plant ambient temperature.The pow

31、der coating shall be used within the powder coatingmanufacturers written recommended shelf life.5.3 If specified in the order, a representative 0.2-kg 8-ozsample of the powder coating shall be supplied to the purchaserfrom each batch. The sample shall be packaged in an airtightcontainer and identifi

32、ed by batch number.5.4 Patching material for repairing damaged coating shall becompatible with the coating, inert in concrete, and feasible forrepairs at the applicator plant or at the fabricating shop.Patching material shall be approved in accordance with AnnexA2 prior to use.5.4.1 The patching mat

33、erial manufacturer shall specify themetals surface preparation, and the procedures for applicationof the patching material.5.4.2 If specified in the order, patching material conformingto Annex A2 and recommended by the powder coatingmanufacturer shall be supplied to the purchaser.6. Surface Preparat

34、ion6.1 The surface of the steel reinforcing bars to be coatedshall be cleaned by abrasive blast cleaning to near-white metalin accordance with SSPC-SP 10. Additional surface treatment,as indicated in 6.3, is permitted. Use of SSPC-VIS 1 as a visualstandard of comparison to define the final surface c

35、ondition ispermitted. Average blast profile maximum roughness depthreadings of 0.04 to 0.10 mm 1.5 to 4.0 mils, as determined byreplica tape measurements using NACE RP-287-87, shall beconsidered suitable as an anchor pattern.6Available fromAmerican Concrete Institute (ACI), P.O.

37、the cleaning media provides the most suitableanchor profile for coating adhesion. After grit has been recycled, a smallportion will take on the appearance of shot.6.2 Multidirectional, high-pressure dry air knives shall beused after blasting to remove dust, grit, and other foreignmatter from the bla

38、st-cleaned steel surface. The air knives shallnot deposit oil on the steel reinforcing bars.NOTE 7It is recommended that incoming steel reinforcing bars andblast media be checked for salt contamination prior to use. Blast mediafound to be salt contaminated should be rejected. Steel reinforcing barsf

39、ound to be salt contaminated from exposure to deicing salts or salt sprayshould be cleaned by acid washing or other suitable methods to removesalt contaminants from the surface prior to blast cleaning.6.3 It shall be permissible for the manufacturer to use achemical wash or conversion of the blast-c

40、leaned steel rein-forcing bar surface, or both, to enhance coating adhesion. Thispretreatment shall be applied after abrasive cleaning and beforecoating, in accordance with the written application instructionsspecified by the pretreatment manufacturer.7. Coating Application7.1 If pretreatment is use

41、d in the preparation of the surface,the powder coating shall be applied to the cleaned andpretreated steel reinforcing bar surface as soon as possible aftersurface treatments have been completed, and before visibleoxidation of the surface occurs as discernible to a person withnormal or corrected vis
