DESCRIPTION: Floor coating systems are designed to protect surfaces in many different service environments. A coating\'s ability to increase durability, mitigate abrasion, and utilize antislip properties to improve occupant safety is critical in today\'s building climate. This course reviews coating system basics, including surface preparation and proper installation techniques. Selection criteria for floor coating systems in various applications are also discussed. OBJECTIVES: At the end of this program, participants will be able to 1) discuss the properties of floor coatings that increase occupant safety, including anti-slip qualities, 2) explain how epoxy floor coatings can increase surface durability by forming a protective barrier, 3) summarize the installation process, including surface preparation, profiling, and coating application, and 4) examine various applications where longevity and safety impact occupant well-being.
