ShipProtect

Marine/Ocean

Is there a standard or a guide for classification of corrosive environments in a marine environment, relative to various coating systems and their durability

Similar to ISO 12944, however, perhaps modified to specifically describe different areas on board a ship.

My job is to create a tool to simplify and somewhat standardize the process of specifying protective coating systems on various items to be installed in newconstruction of ships.

Any input will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
