Corrosion and lining inspections are an essential part of any project, as they can prevent costly infrastructure issues and ensure that your structure reaches its full lifespan potential. The cost of corrosion mitigation runs into millions – and sometimes billions – annually across sectors, and incorrectly applied coatings can lead to premature failure and major safety issues.
In this webinar, Tim Williams and Derrick Cox from the Braun Intertec nondestructive examination team will explore why some coatings fail early and specific project challenges. Our speakers also highlight why quality assurance and quality control are critical functions in coating and lining projects. Our discussion is centered around the importance of having knowledgeable coating inspectors with hands-on experience on your project to help prevent feature headaches. Join us as we delve into the world of coating and lining inspections and discover how they can ensure your project’s success.
