GUIDELINES FOR AN ADEQUATE PROTECTIVE SYSTEM
The European standard UNI EN ISO 12944 defines the guidelines for the protection of steel through anticorrosive paints. It is divided into eight parts and recommends all the criteria useful for obtaining an adequate protective system against corrosion.
- ISO 12944-1 identifies the structure type and the concept of durability
- ISO 12944-2 identifies the classification of environments
- ISO 12944-3 identifies the fundamental design criteria
- ISO 12944-4 identifies the type of surface and its preparation
- ISO 12944-5 identifies the various painting cycles
- ISO 12944-6 identifies the laboratory methods and tests
- ISO 12944-7 identifies the guidelines for the application
- ISO 12944-8 identifies the specifications for a painting cycle
