Paint Systems for Steel & Galvanised Steel

Guide to the protection of iron and steel
against exterior atmospheric corrosion.
Equivalent to AS/NZS 2312:2002
INTRODUCTION
Protection of steel substrates is a major part of the Australian construction scene. Avoidance of the many pit falls that
exist in achieving this goal is of considerable concern to designers, construction engineers and applicators alike.
AS/NZS 2312:2002 Guide to the Protection of Structural Steel Against Atmospheric Corrosion by the Use of Protective
Coatings offers detailed assistance for all of the important aspects of this difficult problem.
The Wattyl Industrial Coatings Guide to AS/NZS 2312 provides a summary of applicable coating systems with a guide to
durability in the particular exposure environments nominated. It is assumed that readers of this guide have a working
knowledge of AS/NZS 2312 and associated standards. For further assistance with system selection for a specific
project please contact your local Wattyl Industrial Coatings Sales Representative or contact Valspar Customer Service
on 0800 735 551.

The information given in this publication is intended as a guide only and the data represented is based on
current products and system information.
This document should be read in conjunction with the AS/NZS 2312:2002 Standard documents and the
additional amendments No.1 - Revised Text AS/NZS2312 and amendment 1/2004-08-02 to the same
standard.
Refer to Section 1.6 Durability Considerations & Section 2 Classification of Environments of the AS/NZS
2312:2002 Standard when using this document.
The criteria for determining when first major maintenance is required are given in Section 10.2 of the
above-mentioned standard.
The requirements of AS/NZS 4680 Standard must be met for galvanising of steel prior to any coating
systems being applied.
Variation in environment, micro & macro climates, what is practical in procedures of application versus what
is ideal along with other factors may cause varying different results.

Category D: High
This category occurs mainly on the coast. Around sheltered bays, Category D extends up to 50m
inland from the shoreline. In areas of rough seas and surf, it extends from about 200-300m to 1km
inland. As with other categories the extent depends on winds, wave action and topography.
Industrial regions may also fit into this category and this category extends inside the plant where it
is best considered as a microenvironment. Damp, contaminated interior environments such as
occur with swimming pools, dye works, paper plants, foundrys, smelters and chemical plants may
also extend into this category.
Category F: Inland Tropical has been omitted in some sections of this guide and it is not
generally experienced in New Zealand environments. Please refer to the Standard if required or
contact your local PPG Protective & Marine Coating specialist.

Category C: Medium

This category covers coastal areas with low salinity. The extent of the affected area
varies with factors such as winds, topography and vegetation. Along ocean front areas
with breaking surf and significant salt spray, it extends from about 1km inland to
between 10 to 50 km inland, depending on the strength of prevailing winds and
topography. Such regions are also found in urban and industrial areas with low pollution
levels, however these areas are uncommon.

Category E: Very High

NZ Version 9, March 2013

This category is common offshore and on the beachfront in regions of rough seas and
surf beaches. The region can extend inland for several hundred metres and in some
areas it can extend more than km from the coast. This category may also be found in
aggressive industrial areas, where the environment may be acidic with pH of <5. For
this reason, Category E is divided into Marine and Industrial for purposes of coating
selection. Some of the damp and/or contaminated interior environments in category D
may occasionally extend into this category.

A full copy of the AS/NZS 2312:2002 Standard is available from www.standards.co.nz

Note: For a full, more detailed description please refer to the above mention Standard.

Important Note :
If a site is considered to be in more than one category, then a selected coating should be capable
of resisting the most sever of the environments involved.

This category includes dry, rural areas as well as other regions remote from the coast or sources
of pollution. Most (but not all) areas of Australia or New Zealand beyond 50km from the sea are in
this category. Unheated buildings where some condensation may occur, such as warehouses and
sports halls, can be in this category; however proximity to the coast is an important factor.

Most commonly found inside heated or air conditioned buildings with clean
atmospheres. They may also be found in semi-sheltered locations remote from marine
or industrial influence and in unheated or non-air conditioned buildings. The only
external environments in Australia or New Zealand are some alpine regions although
generally these environments will extend into category B.

(E-I: Industrial E-M: Marine)

Category B: Low

Category A: Very Low

Other microclimatic effects which may accelerate the corrosion rate of the deterioration of its protective coating include acidic or alkaline fallout, industrial chemicals and solvents, airborne
fertilizers and chemicals, prevailing winds which transport contamination, hot or cold surfaces and surfaces exposed to abrasion and/or impact etc. It is very difficult, if not impossible, to
predict accurately the aggressiveness of a given environment and a certain amount of educated judgement is required to assess its influence on coating life.

2/ On unwashed surfaces, i.e. surfaces exposed to the atmospheric contaminants, notably coastal salts and pollution, but protected from cleansing rain.

1/ At locations where the metal surface remains damp for an extended period, such as where surfaces are not freely drained or are sheltered from sunlight.

In addition to climatic effects, the local environmental effects (microclimate) produced by the erection of a structure or instillation of equipment needed to be taken into account. Such on-site
factors require additional consideration because a mildly corrosive atmosphere can be converted into an aggressive environment by microclimatic effects. For example, a significant
acceleration of corrosion rate can occur in the following circumstances:

NOTES:
1.
Refer to the technical datasheet for the correct solvent selection
2.
Apply 1st coat as soon as possible after the preparation
3.
For added protection, apply a stripe coat of Wattyl Epinamel PR250 to all nut & bolt holes, weld margins and all leading
edges.
4.
Apply each coat in a continuous unbroken film in a manner which reduces spray marks, brush marks and other evidence as
to the method of application.
5.
Practical coverage of products is project dependent.
6.
This specification must be read in conjunction with the relevant technical data sheets.

NOTES:
1.
Refer to the technical datasheet for the correct solvent selection
2.
Apply 1st coat as soon as possible after the preparation
3.
For added protection, apply a stripe coat of Wattyl Killrust Oil based Galvanised Iron Primer to all nut & bolt holes, weld
margins and all leading edges.
4.
Apply each coat in a continuous unbroken film in a manner which reduces spray marks, brush marks and other evidence as
to the method of application.
5.
Practical coverage of products is project dependent.
6.
Some colours may require multiple coats to achieve opacity
7.
This specification must be read in conjunction with the relevant technical data sheets.

NOTES:
1.
Refer to the technical datasheet for the correct solvent selection
2.
Apply 1st coat as soon as possible after the preparation
3.
For added protection, apply a stripe coat of Wattyl Epinamel PR250 to all nut & bolt holes, weld margins and all leading
edges.
4.
Apply each coat in a continuous unbroken film in a manner which reduces spray marks, brush marks and other evidence as
to the method of application.
5.
Practical coverage of products is project dependent.
6.
Some colours may require multiple coats to achieve opacity
7.
This specification must be read in conjunction with the relevant technical data sheets.
