C. PAINTING OF BUILDING STEEL STRUCTURES
All steel structural work shall be painted as follows unless otherwise stated in the drawing
/ Technical Specification. Relevant section of the GS shall be referred for further
guidelines on painting.
3.1 General
This specification covers the materials, tools, facilities and quality requirement for
surface preparation and painting of steel structures, equipment, piping, ducts, chutes,
wood work etc.
The complete paint system for any item includes the following basic activities
i. Proper Surface preparation

ii. Applications of Primer Coats
iii. Applications of Finished Coats
All the above coats shall be of quality paint products and of approved
make. The scope of work shall also include supply of All paint materials as per
Specification described herein.
3.2 Surface Preparation
Surface preparation required for paint application, shall be such as to clean the surface
thoroughly y of any material which will be conducive to premature failure of the paint subs t
rates.
All surfaces shall be cleaned of loose substances, and foreign materials, such as dirt, rust,
scale, oil, grease, welding flux, etc. in order that the prime coat is rigidly anchored to the
virgin metal surface. The surface preparation shall confirm to pictorial representation of
surface quality grade of Swedish Standards Institution SIS – 055900 or equivalent standards
such as SSPC – VIS – 1.67 or DIN 55928(Part 4) or BS 4232 or IS 1477 – 1971 (Part I)
The acceptable surface preparation quality / grade are described under each paint system.
The procedures include solvent c leaning, hand tool cleaning, power tool cleaning, blast
cleaning, wood surface cleaning, flame cleaning and pickling. This will ensure surface quality
as required by the Specific primer paint. For ready reference surface preparation Quality
grade to be adopted in respect of SIS 055900 and DIN 55928 (par t -4) is given in Annexure-
01.
3.3 Hand Tool Cleaning
The surface shall be cleaned manually by vigorous wire brushing as per grade St -2 quality
of Swedish Standard Institution SIS 055900 and DIN 555928. This method effectively
removes loosely adherent materials, but would not affect residues of rust or mill scales that
are intact are firmly adherent. Finally the surface is to be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner or

with clean compressed air or with clean brush. After preparation the Surface shall have a
faint metallic shine. The appearance shall correspond to the prints designated St – 2.
3.4 Power Tool Cleaning
The surface shall be cleaned by electric or pneumatic tools, such as brushes, sanding
machines, disc abrasive grinder, rotary disc scalar etc. to St – 3 quality. The tools shall be
used carefully to prevent excessive roughening of surface and formation of ridges and burrs.
This method will remove loosely adherent materials but would not affect residues of rust or
mill scales that are firmly adherent and intact.
3.5 Blast Cleaning
The surface shall be cleaned by impingement of abrasive materials, such as graded sand at
high velocity created by clean and dry compressed air blast as per the grade according to
Swedish Standard Institution SIS 055900 .This method will remove loosely adherent
materials as well as adherent scales and mill scales. Prior to application of blast, heavy
deposit of oil and grease are removed by solvent cleaning excessive surface scales are
removed by hand tools or power tool cleaning. The extent of removal of adherent scales is
varied, depending on the application and is defined by the surface quality grades Sa1, Sa2,
Sa2.5 and Sa3 in the order of increasing cleanliness. The blast c leaning is not
recommended for sheet metal work.
3.6 Flame Cleaning
The surface is c leaned by rapid heating by means of oxyacetylene flame to loosen the
adherent scales, followed immediately by wire brushing. This method will remove loosely
adherent materials as well as most of the adherent scales and mill scales. In order to
minimize or prevent distortion flame cutting shall not be used on members having thickness
of 6 mm and lower.
