CorrosionManagement | September/October 2009INSTITUTENEWSThe President Writes...One of the things I like about corrosion(apart from its ability to give me and manyothers a good living) is the enormous rangeit covers. Yesterday illustrated it to me as wellas any. In the morning I had the honour ofpresenting Professor Christofer Leygraf of theRoyal Institute of Technology in Stockholmwith the Institute’s U. R. Evans Award at the50th Corrosion Science Symposium held atManchester University. Afterwards, this worthyaward winner fascinated the audience withan explanation of his work on atmosphericcorrosion at the molecular level using stateof-the-artin situ analytical techniques. Inthe afternoon, someone sent me a set ofphotographs of one of the sorriest lookingsteel and reinforced concrete structures I haveever seen and asked if it would be possibleto repair it. Let’s put it this way, it was theequivalent of a vet being presented with abloody dog collar and asked if Rover wouldpull through. Both myself and Prof. Leygrafwere ‘doing corrosion’, but that’s probablywhere the similarity ends.Another example would be explaining theprinciples of cathodic protection. You cando it essentially numerically employingPourbaix diagrams developed from chemicalthermodynamics – or, as I prefer, bung a lumpof steel, a zinc bar and a reference electrodeinto a box full of damp sand and get busy witha DVM. I’ll tell you what, the latter is a darnedsight better at explaining IR drop, ‘instant offs’and potential decays, but I suppose it dependswho your audience is and what their needsare. Vive la diversité!Just as the summer holiday season grindsto a halt, the autumn conference seasonfires up and no one event is more eagerlyawaited than Correx2009 (see, productplacement has alreadyarrived in ICorr). As ifBirmingham wasn’texciting enough, from27th to 29th Octoberthe ICorr’s premiercorrosion conferencehits the NEC withparallel sessions onprotective coatings andcathodic protection.Details should be foundelsewhere in this issue– if not, somethinghas gone terriblywrong at the printers. Seriously though, areally excellent programme of speakers andexhibitors has been pulled together and Ihope to see as many of you as possible inBrum this October.I’ve been inundated (i.e. more than two) withexpressions of interest regarding my proposedrust safari venture – although, to date, nogood-will deposits. With that in mind, thisedition’s photo is the first of a new series Icall ‘Where’s that Wally Standing Now?’,along the lines of the popular book-basedobservation games, but without the red andwhite stripey shirt and scarf. You will note,not surprisingly, that the parapet casting tomy side is somewhat afflicted with rust. Butwhere am I and what building am I standingin front of? First person with the correctanswer gets a crisp tenner from me for thecharity of their choice and if no-one gets it, Ichoose one. Sound fair?Terms and conditions apply.

Discussions on ournext link up with the RSC in a few years arealready underway.The chance to meet up and exchange ideaswith the electrochemists and electrochemicalengineers who form the core of the RSC’sFaraday and Electroanalysis groups is alwaysa useful exercise for those of us working onthe electrochemical side of corrosion studies.In particular, the scheduling of the plenarylectures to run across the whole timetableensures that not only do those of us incorrosion get to hear about the most excitingdevelopments in the electrochemistry world,but also that the RSC audience are luckyenough to attend the Evans Award plenarylecture on corrosion.The winner of the Evans Award for 2009was Professor Christofer Leygraf of theRoyal Institute of Technology, Stockholmin Sweden, who received the sword fromPaul Lambert, president of the Institute ofCorrosion.

CorrosionManagement | September/October 2009Before we start just let me make a plug for theCorrex conference taking place in Birminghamfrom Oct 27th - 29th (see other publicityin this issue). One of the sessions is oncoatings and the other on CP, both areasdear to the heart of many (over half) ourmembers and both of which get somecoverage within this article. The conferenceis very reasonably priced and the CEDworkgroups hope to meet there.Anyway in this months TT, I am returning tothe topic of bimetallic corrosion, a subjectarea that constitutes the greatest proportionof the technical queries that I receive.We will start by reminding ourselves howdevastating this can be with an example ofa gantry sign sent to me eighteen monthsago by Rob Poulton and which I have alreadypublished in a article on aluminium.This picture shows aluminium bars weldedto aluminium matrix frame with plastic/pvc sheet on front of the sign attached withgalvanised bolts. Not nice at all! But thismonths’s article has really been inspired by mylistening recently to a couple of papers aboutuse of powdered magnesium as a cathodicallyprotecting pigment for aluminium at theAdvances in Corrosion Protection by OrganicCoatings Conference in Cambridge.The story in a nutshell is that for protectionof their aluminium alloys the American AirForce relied heavily on the use of chromatepigment and passivation treatment. Bothvery effective- but no longer allowed! So thegroup at North Dakota State University havebeen working on an alternative based onmagnesium pigment dispersed in an epoxybinder. This has now has reached a state whereit seems to work pretty well in the lab and isgoing to tried out on an actual aeroplane. Itis the theory behind the use of this pigmentthat interests me.Both talks used the term cathodic protectionto describe the action of the magnesium (atleast in the early stages of its operation- thepotential does rise with time - see graph)This was based on the observation that thepotential taken up by the system was belowthe galvanic potential taken up by the barealuminium alloy (typically 2024 or 7075)in, say, 0.1M NaCl. Thus if the latter had apotential of say -0.6V (SHE), the potentialof the system (coated with the magnesiumcontaining paint) might be -1.0Now there is problem with using the termcathodic protection to describe this situation.This is because the thermodynamic potentialof aluminium that you would need to getbelow to achieve true CP is -1.67 volt. Thiswould be impractical with magnesium (andindeed even impractical using impressedcurrent CP as it would generate vastquantities of hydrogen). The concrete peoplehave encountered this before in applying CPto protect steel rebar. They have found thatquite effective prevention can be achieved bygetting the potential into the region whereit is below the natural potential but stillabove the true protection potential (in iron’scase maybe between -0.5 and -0.3V). Noteapplying any amount of negative voltagetends to drive positive ions towards the metalsurface and negative ions away thus reducingINSTITUTENEWSTechnical Topics No 22:Bimetallic effect – can itprevent as well as protect?by Technical Secretary, Douglas J Millschloride and generating alkali. In iron’s casethis would induce some level of passivationbecause magnetite is stable (work by the lateGeraint Thomas confirmed this).This brings me to a related observation thatI made when testing zinc dust loaded paintson steel in sea water. As with the magnesium“paint”, the potential rose within a week or soto above the protection potential of the steel.(In fact by the end of the test the potentialwas close to the unprotected steel value). Butalthough there was some white zinc corrosionproduct observed on the outside, therewas no attack on the steel at all (note thispaint system was too porous (confirmed byResistance measurements using EIS and ENM)to be working by resistance inhibition). In thiscase the zinc ions may well be contributing tothe inhibition.Similarly in the case of magnesium onaluminium a magnesium hydroxide filmmay well be being laid down Of coursethe reason that the aluminium alloy itselfhas a much higher voltage (nearly a volthigher than expected) is because of theexcellent aluminum oxide film. But incertain environments (eg the M-way gantrysign) that oxide can (and does) break down(mercury compounds cause this ). I wonderwhat value of potential would have beenneeded to effectively protect the gantrysign? Quite possibly well below that whichcould have been achieved by just connectingit to magnesium.So like many corrosion situations one needs toknow all the facts before being able to predictwhat will happen. That is whatkeeps the subject fascinating.Returning to the example in thelast TT of selective corrosion,this has generated interest withone correspondent sendingin a very good example ofselective corrosion and anotherproffering an alternative (andno doubt better!) explanationfor what happened to thezinc coated barbed wire. I willreturn to those next month.Any comments, as usual,please contact Douglas@harrbridge.freeserve.co.uk7

CorrosionManagement | September/October 2009TECHNICALARTICLEModelling the electrochemical remediationof steel framed heritage structuresSuperstructures, 32 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10013, USAAuthor: Yu-You WuAbstract: The problem of damage to historicsteel framed structures as a result of corrosionis now widely recognised in Western Europe,America and Australia. Structures built inthe late 19th or early 20th century are atgreatest risk, together with earlier buildingsthat have received modifications or structuralinterventions during this period. Traditionalmethods of repair are often too intrusive andtoo expensive to consider. As a consequence anumber of important structures are at risk ofincurring extensive damage to their stone andfaience finishes that may require replacementwith new, non-original elements. Cathodicprotection (CP) has been seen as a possibleelectrochemical solution to the problem ofsteel frame corrosion and has been in use inthe UK and elsewhere for several years. In theabsence of formal guidance and standards,most installations rely on the skill andexperience of the designers and installers toensure effective remediation.To assist in the development of such guidelines,the Royal Society has supported a four yearresearch programme into the use of CP onhistoric structures, carried out at the Centrefor Infrastructure Management at SheffieldHallam University. This paper describes thecompleted study, its results and conclusionsand shows how modelling of the processeshas helped identify the key factors in thesuccessful application of this technique toachieve maximum protection with minimumdisruption to the original structure.Keywords: steel framed structures, metalliccorrosion, numerical modelling, cathodicprotection.1. IntroductionThe identification of “Regent Street Disease”in the late 1970’s first highlighted theproblems of steel frame corrosion occurringon the grand and often listed structuresin the centres of many cities. This form ofconstruction, first employed in Chicago andsubsequently used in most major westerncities in the first two decades of the 20thcentury, has resulted in serious consequenceswith respect to serviceability, sustainability,safety and aesthetics. Cathodic protection,originally developed by Humphry Davy [1]and later employed widely on buried and10submerged structures, was first consideredfor reinforced concrete in the late 1950’s. Itwas not until the development of improvedanode systems based on catalysed titaniumand titanium oxide in the early 1980’s andthe considerable advances in digital operatingsystems that it became a serious commercialsolution.The transfer to steel framed buildings wassomewhat slower and it was not until 1997that full structures such as Gloucester RoadUnderground Station [2], were protected bysuch systems. Even now, with several sizeableinstallations in the UK and others appearingworldwide, there are no formal guidelinesfor the design, installation and operationof such systems. Most of the knowledge isbased on empirical observation, lacks depthof understanding and is in the hands of a verysmall number of specialists.The aim of the Royal Society funded researchprogramme was to return to first principalsin the evaluation of the corrosion processesinvolved in the disruption of structuresincorporating steel frames and how it canbe controlled through the use of cathodicprotection. Numerical modelling of thecathodic protection currents was developedin parallel with practical studies employingsand to represent the electrolytic propertiesof masonry. From these models it has beenpossible to both better understand theprocesses occurring and develop optimiseddesigns for the protection of such structureswith minimal intervention.2. Corrosion processes insteel framed structuresSteel framed masonry clad constructionbecame popular around the turn of the 20thcentury and many of the grand commercialand municipal buildings found in Europeancity centres constructed between 1900 and1940 employed this form of construction(see Figure 1). The steel frames weregenerally dependent upon the quality of theirencapsulation to prevent corrosion. Oftenthey would have a cement wash or bitumenemulsion coating but this was only intendedto be a holding primer to prevent corrosionduring transport. Over the last 75 to 100Figure 1: Steel frame construction circa1939.years, the protection has broken down and thesteel has corroded, resulting in cracking anddisplacement of masonry as the high volumecorrosion has filled up the gaps between theframe and the cladding, as shown in Figure 2.In extreme cases, the steel members have lostsufficient section to impair their structuralcapacity, requiring the inclusion of new oradditional steel. In the presence of moistureand oxygen, steel and other simple ferrousalloys undergo corrosion resulting in a lossof metal and the formation of expansivecorrosion products commonly referred toas rust. The rate and nature of the processFigure 2: Corrosion of steel frame resulting indisplacement of masonry.

CorrosionManagement | September/October 2009TECHNICALARTICLEdepends on alloy composition, environmentalfactors, design and the presence of additionalprotection.Aqueous corrosion requires two reactions tobe sustained simultaneously. One reactionresults in metallic iron being converted to ironions with an associated release of electrons,this is the ‘anodic’ reaction. At the sametime in an adjacent area, these electrons arecombined with water to produce hydroxyl ionswhich protect the steel, this is the ‘cathodic’reaction. Dissolved metal ions react withhydroxyl ions to form the familiar corrosionproducts and the anodic areas gradually losesection. [3]. Traditional methods of repairrequire the displaced masonry to be removedand the corroded frame to be cleaned andrecoated prior to reinstating the cladding.This is not only disruptive and expensive,but generally leaves large areas of corrosionwhere no displacement of the masonry hasoccurred untreated and the level of damageto the masonry will commonly require newmaterial to be employed in the reconstruction,thereby undermining the authenticity of thestructure.Cathodic protection of such structures,introduced toward the end of the last century,Figure 4: Sand box test representing astanchion.Figure 3: Generalarrangement ofsand box tests.has provided a technically feasible andcommercially viable alternative to the repairand maintenance of such structures andcontinues to gain favour in such applications.In simple terms, cathodic protection works bymaking all the steel to be protected a cathodicwith respect to a system of installed anodes.These can be self-powered galvanic or, morecommonly inert anodes powered by a lowvoltage DC supply. Details of such systemshave been described in detail elsewhere [4].3. Sand box studiesThe experimental and numerical studies oncathodic protection systems for steel framedmasonry structures were initially conductedemploying sand as a model for masonry [5].The arrangement for such tests is shown inFigure 5: Potential distribution for steel beam(white line) polarised by two anodes (whitedots).Figure 3 and an example of a sand box testrepresenting a stanchion is shown in Figure4. Similar tests were carried out with thesteel section laid horizontally to represent abeam. The sand, dampened with tap water,represents a homogeneous electrolyte with aconsistent resistivity.This approach allowed the distribution ofprotective potential and current to be studiedon the relatively complex geometry of thesteel sections. Figure 5 shows the potentialdistribution for a beam provided by twoanodes (indicated by the white dots). Allpotentials are in millivolts versus a copper/copper sulphate electrode (CSE). From thisstage of the study it was possible to make thefollowing conclusions.• There is a significant variation of protectivepotential and current density in differentregions of the steel surface. This variation isrelated not only to the resistivity of electrolyteand the anode locations but also to thegeometry of the steel section.• The distribution of CP potential and currentdensity is directly related to the resistivity of theelectrolyte. Under the same applied currentdensity and anode location, the distribution ofthe protective potential and current density ismore uniform in a low resistivity electrolyte. Ahigher resistivity electrolyte results in a lowerprotective current density on the steel.• The anode position has a significant effecton the distribution of CP potential and currentdensity. The potential and current densitydistributions along the surface of steel sectionbecome more uniform as the anode distancefrom the steel increases.4. Numerical modellingHaving established a practical method ofrepresenting steel in masonry under theinfluence of cathodic protection, it wasnecessary to review the various numericalmethods available for modelling the CPprotection currents and resulting potentials.The finite element method and boundaryelement method have been used to analyse theprotective current and potential distributionof cathodically protected reinforced concretestructures and offshore or marine structuresrespectively [6, 7]. More recently, the latterhas been introduced to analyse cathodicprotection systems for steel-framed masonrystructures [8]. By employing the boundaryelement method, it has been possibleto model the theoretical distribution ofpotential and current for a number of typicalconfigurations and compare the results withthose measured in the sand box experiments.There is generally good agreement, as shownin the comparison of line scan results shownin Figure 6.As can be seen, the results follow the sametrend although the experimental results aretypically 100mV more negative. The cause forthis variation could be related to a numberof reasons. For example, in boundary elementmodelling, the sand resistivity is assumedto be uniform whereas in reality, the sandresistivity will not be precisely the samein each experiment and there will be some11

CorrosionManagement | September/October 2009TECHNICALARTICLEvariation between different areas of thesandbox. It is also possible that the formationof the passive film on the steel section, thedesired consequence of applying CP, doesnot occur evenly leading to some variability.Despite these errors the boundary elementmethod provides sufficiently accurate resultsto produce potential and current distributionmaps for the surface of buried steel elementsand identify areas of excessive or inadequatepolarisation, as shown in Figure 7.5. Stray current effectsFigure 6: Comparison of experimental andmodelled potential line scan for steel beamin sand.Figure 7: Potential distribution on the surface of a steel beam subject to cathodic protection,as modelled by the boundary element method.Figure 8: Sand box test to assess stray current effects.Steel-framed masonry buildings contain avariety of metallic elements. In addition tothe frame itself, metal window frames, drainpipes and fixings such as wall ties and clampsare commonly encountered. Generallyelectrical continuity between structuralmembers is rarely a problem [9] since thestructural connections are typically boltedor riveted. However, other elements aremore likely to be electrically discontinuousand this must be taken into account whendesigning a CP systems. Failure to ensure theelectrical continuity of all metallic elementscould result in stray current interactionsbetween the various elements of thestructure, resulting in accelerated corrosionof the discontinuous items.By employing the boundary elementmethod, it has been possible to modelthe effect of discontinuous steel on straycurrent corrosion and the results have beencompared with weight loss measurementsfrom sand box tests, as shown in Figure 8. Themodel predicts the steel between the anodeand the steel section will pick up currenton the face nearest the anode and releasecurrent on the face nearest the steel section,the latter resulting in a loss of metal. For theother bar, while there is some pick up, thereis relatively little loss and consequently littleor no corrosion [10]. Estimated weight lossesbased on the modelled currents comparedwell with actual weight loss measurementsobtained from the bars, demonstrating thevalidity of the boundary element methodfor assessing the effects of stray current ondiscontinuous metallic items.6. Design implicationsHaving demonstrated the adequacy of themodel, it has subsequently been employedto assist in the detailed design of cathodicprotection systems for historically significantsteel framed structures. The model can assistin the optimisation of anode locations intwo ways. Firstly, it can help identify the bestlocations for anodes so as to achieve fullprotection from the least number of anodes,12

CorrosionManagement | September/October 2009TECHNICALARTICLEFigure 9: Completed CP installation to a heritage steel framed building.this in turn reduces the number of holes thathave to be made in the structure and savesboth money and resources. The second wayin which the model can be of benefit is wherethere are preferred locations for anodes, forexample at joints, and the adequacy of theprotection afforded by these anode locationscan be assessed prior to installation.7. Future workThe model generated from this work alsohas potential as a development tool forimproving the performance of CP systemsand overcoming a number of the practicalproblems presently encountered. Theability of the model to accommodate straycurrent effects should make it possible toimprove the present methods of dealing withdiscontinuous metallic items, such as clampsand wall ties. It should also be possible todevelop more efficient systems with savingsin both the cost of installation and the longterm running costs.One area considered worthy of furtherinvestigation with the assistance of themodel is the employment of pulsed powersupplies which have only previously beenemployed commercially in oil and gasapplications [11]. Such systems, if found tobe workable, could increase the efficiencyof the CP installations and reduce both thenumber of anodes required and the extent ofstray current effects on discontinuous itemsto provide more practical and sustainablesolutions for the preservation of steel framedheritage structures.8. ConclusionsBy employing the sand box technique, anapproach more commonly used in the studyof pipeline CP, it has been possible to verifythe validity of numerical modelling based onthe boundary element method for optimisingelectrochemical remediation systems forhistoric steel framed structures.Laboratory tests on simple masonry encasedsteel samples have further confirmed theaccuracy of the method in predicting thedistribution of cathodic protection on actualstructures. Such modelling has subsequentlybeen employed in the design of CP systemsfor major heritage structures and has provedvaluable in allowing the location and numberof anodes to be optimised, thereby reducingboth the costs and level of damage to theoriginal building fabric.It is hoped that further studies on pulsedpower supplies will result in simpler systemsand permit more widespread application ofthis remediation technique.9.

CorrosionManagement | September/October 2009COMPANYNEWSDENSO VOID FILLER PROTECTS JETTY CRANESA recent joint venture contract completed forthe Ministry of Defence by Morgan Est AMECwas the construction of the Valiant floatingjetty for servicing Astute Class submarines atFaslane. The jetty was towed to Faslane fromthe construction site at Port Glasgow.The 200 metre long, 28 metre wide, Valiantjetty is equipped with eight Service LogisticDerricks (cranes). In order to give maximumanti-corrosion protection to the mountingbases that fix the cranes to the jetty, all voidsaround the bolts were filled with Winn &Coales’ Denso Void Filler. In total, 750 litresof Denso Void Filler was used on the jetty.Denso Void Filler is based on a microcrystallinepetrolatum containing corrosion inhibitors andmoisture repellents. It forms a permanentlyflexible medium for the encapsulation andprotection of bearings, tendons, stay cablesetc. It has been used on a variety of majorcivil engineering projects, including bothSevern Bridges.The Valiant floating jetty on tow to Faslane. The eight Service Logistic Derricks arepainted yellow.APPLYING DENSO PROTECTION INA CONFINED SPACEA challenging contract recently completedby Advanced Engineering Solutions ofCramlingham, Northumberland, was theapplication of a Denso protection systemto water pipelines enclosed within a 300mbrick tunnel. The work was carried out forNorthumbrian Water as part of its ongoingprogramme of upgrading its potable watersupply system.Constructed in the 1920s, the tunnel is in aremote part of Northumbrian Water’s area.The first problem to be met by AdvancedEngineering Solutions was to transport thepipeline protection materials across roughboggy terrain approximately one mile fromthe nearest road.Entry to the tunnel was via a manhole at eitherof the 300 metre tunnel carrying sectionsof the two 18 inch diameter pipelines. Thematerials therefore had to be manhandled forup to 150 metres from either end within thistunnel. Additionally, as it was confined spacethe protection materials could not containany hazardous substances such as solvents.The Winn & Coales Denso system chosenconsisted of Denso Paste, followed by DensoHi-Tack Tape and Denso Self Adhesive PVC.Prior to application the AES confined spacespecialist team cleaned the pipe surfacesfrom any loose residues of the formerbitument wash coating and wire-brushedareas showing signs of surface corrosion.AES personnel applying Denso Hi-Tack Tapein the confined space of the NorthumbrianWater tunnel.14

CorrosionManagement | September/October 2009COMPANYNEWSRJ Herbert Opts for Metal Sprayingwith MetallisationRJ Herbert Engineering has opted for metalspraying, using Metallisation equipment,as an alternative to hot dip galvanising, toimprove customer service, reduce costs andsave time.The decision to opt for metal sprayingwas made following a request from aBelgian customer, a potato processing andpackaging line export company, to protectthe walkways and handrails of the potatoprocessor equipment. Herbert is a Britishmanufacturer of handling equipment forthe vegetable industry and environmentalwaste and recycling industries. Its clientbase includes European fresh produce packhouses, major international processors aswell as many well-established growers andindustrial companies.With constant use of the walkways andhandrails running alongside the process andpackaging equipment, as well as cleaning andpressure washing, a sturdy surface protectionis crucial to the longevity of the equipment.The customer specified a zinc coating shouldbe applied prior to a powder coating finishusing either hot dip galvanising or metalspraying. Herbert had extensive experienceof galvanising, but was unhappy with thedownsides of this process, in this instance, anddecided to explore metal spraying options.The reasons behind Herbert looking atmetal spraying, as an alternative to hot dipgalvanising, were based on the logisticalcost and lead times associated with the offsite process. Herbert needed to find an inhousealternative that had equal, or better,corrosion preventative properties. Havinglooked at all the processes available it wasdecided that not only did metal sprayingmeet this criteria, but also meant that therewas no post spraying operations such as redrillingholes or cleaning of metal drips. Thepre-spraying process was also simplified,as no special preparation, such as designedfor heat distortion and holes for hot airexpansion, was required. The main factors forthe acquisition of the metal spray equipment,were that the process is now done on site, notransport costs, no sub-contractor lead time,less product build time and no post sprayoperations are required.Ken North, Operations Director at RJHerbert Engineering, says: “Our decision toopt for metal spraying, as an alternative tohot dip galvanising, was made much easieronce we made contact with Metallisation.We knew that metal spraying could be anideal alternative for us, but Metallisation’sunderstanding of what we were trying to dowas ideal. We are so pleased with the metalspray equipment we have purchased fromMetallisation. The outstanding results of thepotato processing plant has encouraged usto offer the enhanced corrosion protectionas an option to other customers across ourfull product range. So we are very happy allround.”In addition, Herbert use wet paint as well aspowder coatings and hope to use the newmetal spray process for these applications too.It’s hoping to reap the benefits of improvedadhesion of paint to metal spray withoutthe need to etch primers, as they currentlydo when painting on to galvanised steel.The thickness of the metal sprayed coatingswill vary depending on the environment inwhich the sprayed item is located and on thecustomers’ specific requirements.The operator has found it easy to use and ishappy to work with the system. Herbert alsopurchased a 20m supplies package, whichallows its operators to locate the spray unitoutside the spray room and provides flexibleaccess around the items they are sprayingwithout having to stop to move equipment.Metallisation provided an onsite trainingcourse to maximise the efficiency of theequipment and ensure operators are totallyfamiliar with the system. Herbert also optedfor the Metallisation, Metserve preventativemaintenance contract, which provides twovisits per annum by a Metallisation serviceengineer to keep the system in excellentworking order.Herbert spray zinc at this time but is currentlyconsidering spraying with aluminium forcertain applications. Future considerationsinclude offering a robust, non-slip metalsprayed coating on walkways, stairs andinspection areas, to its clients.Established in the UK in 1922, Metallisation issynonymous with metal spraying to a diverserange of industries around the world. Metalspraying is a technology, which protects andgreatly extends the life of a wide variety ofstructures, equipment and vessels, in themost hostile environments and in situationswhere protective surface coatings are vital forlongevity. The variety of metallised coatingsis vast, but can be broken down into two maincategories. These include anti-corrosion andengineering coatings.For more information on Metallisation, pleasecall Stuart Milton, Sales and MarketingManager, on 01384 252 464 or visitwww.metallisation.com.15

CorrosionManagement | September/October 2009COMPANYNEWSAWARD SUCCESS FOR SUSTAINING MEMBERThe Group Chief Executive of one of the UK’sleading painting contractors said investmentin training is paying dividends after scoopingthree major awards.In less than 72 hours Sustaining Membersof the Institute of Corrosion, the HankinsonPainting Group were awarded both thePainting Decorating Association of GreatBritain’s Industrial Painting Contract of theYear award and the industry’s highest accolade– the Premier Trophy Award. The awardsrecognised the outstanding work undertakenon Silver Jubilee Bridge in Runcorn for HaltonBorough Council.They then went on to win the Johnstones’Painter of the Year Awards and an£18,000 van.Group chief executive Stephen Hankinsonthis success was in part due to the company’sresponse to changing policy and theircommitment to meeting new competencylevels required by the Highways Agency.He said: “Hankinson became the firstcontractor in the UK to achieve the NationalHighway Sector Scheme 19A (NHSS 19A).“Financial results were improved immediatelywith turnover and profit increasing.“I have always been a great believer thatour people are our biggest asset and I havealways recognised that they must be giventhe necessary skills to achieve.“And while our commitment to training isnothing new, we have faced some significantand unique challenges in 2008 relating totraining requirements.“In particular our Industrial Painting Divisionhad to meet the new requirements of theirmajor client, The Highways Agency.“The training and learning that took place wasindustry leading.“Success was measured by the number ofoperatives who achieved accreditation –100%.“The fact that we became the first paintingcontractor in the UK to achieve the NHSS19A raised our profile enormously andhas given us tremendous opportunity forfurther growth.“This forward thinking to invest in training,particularly during an economic downturn,is now being widely acknowleged as industrybest practice and securing Hankinson highprofile awards and contracts.”NHSS 19A was implemented by the HighwaysAgency as a mandatory requirement on allappropriate contracts from February 1 2008.16The Highways Agency believes that adoptingthe scheme has achieved their objective ofemploying a competent, skiiled workforce onall work sites.The Highways Agency also supported theInstitute of Corrosion in developing theirIndustrial Coating Applicator Training Scheme(ICATS) as the benchmark level for trainingand assessment of paint applicators toachieve NHSS19A registration.Established for 34 years, Hankinson employmore than 120 in Birkenhead and 230 peoplenationally, with a turnover of £12.5m.In addition to the ICATS accreditation,more than 90% of their workforce nowhold Construction Skills CertificationScheme cards.As a result, Hankinson have recently gainedthe Platinum Standard Award from theConstruction Skills Certification Scheme –another important indicator of standards forthe industry.Stuart Lyon is a professor of Corrosion ControlTechnology at the University of Manchesterand chair and managing director of CorrexLtd, who developed ICATS.He said: “The resistance to new initiatives inthis industry is immense – particularly wherethere has been no prior track record in thearea, “Thus despite the adoption of ICATS bythe Highways Agency and Network Rail therewas great initial reluctance for contractors toput their heads above the parapet.“Hankinson were an exception and havesupported ICATS from the early days. Theyregistered into the scheme in April 2007even though it was not mandated by theHighways Agency for new contracts untilFebruary 2008.“Hankinson’s experience with theirtrained operatives is that they take new pridein their work.“Thus they are no longer just ‘painters’ theyare ‘industrial coatings applicators.’“Hankinson is a model example of howdedicated management with support of staffand employees can deliver a professional andeffective implementation of an innovativetraining scheme.“Hankinson has been one of the success storiesof ICATS and has developed a training modelthat we encourage others to emulate.”Stephen added: “We have delivered all thisduring the current difficult economic climatebecause investment in training is one of ourcore values.“We believe that our efforts in the last 12months have not only led to this industryrecognition but also to increased profitabilityand a much stronger market position.“There was some initial resistance byemployees who felt that with more than 20years experience under their belt, furthertraining was either unnecessary.“However they can all now see the benefitand take even more pride in their work.“Both the Highways Agency and NetworkRail demand ICATS and Hankinson are nowbest placed to bid for their future contracts.“The market place is changing rapidly andcompanies who fail to invest in training willbe left behind.“The Hankinson group was quick to respondand now that investment in training ispaying dividends.”
