High-Pressure Water Jetting and Coating of Steel Structures covers the fundamentals of the coating, cleaning, and preparation of steel surfaces through high-pressure water jetting. It starts by covering the basics, providing readers with key definitions, classifications, and general applications, before discussing fundamental concepts and equipment, such as water jet generation, drop impact erosion, high-pressure pumps, pressure accessories, and more. Steel surface preparation is covered next, outlining process optimization and modeling techniques, water and paint disposal methods, and more. Surface quality aspects and standards are also discussed, and this revised edition has been updated to include a brand new chapter on coating performance, as well as new sections throughout covering the use of artificial intelligence in modeling and process optimization, new corrosion protection methods, new jetting methods and equipment, and much more.

• Covers the fundamentals concepts of high-pressure water jetting as well as equipment such as high-pressure pumps, performance charts, nozzles and their arrangement, pressure accessories, and more
• Details the preparation of steel surfaces with high-pressure water jetting, discussing process optimization and modeling, input and output parameter definitions, environmental issues, water and waste disposal, selection and assessment of surface preparation methods, and more
• Features a new chapter on coating performance, covering flash rust tolerant coatings, substrate requirements, pull-off strength, and corrosion protection
