Scope of works
AQL carried out a restoration and protection measures, including: Encapsulation and Scaffolding: A full scaffolding encapsulation was built to contain all the debris created, stopping pollution to the air. A scaffolding platform was constructed to allow for operatives to carry out the work in an efficient and safe manner. Surface Preparation: All of the steel was shot blasted to remove the existing coating and any debris. Shot blasting was all done to SA 2.5 as per paint suppliers recommendation. Primer- A primer was applied as part of the paint system to allow for the best compatibility for the protective coating. Protective Coating- A C5 classified protective coating system was applied to protect the structure from adverse weather and any other conditions it may encounter.
