ESSENTIAL ONE DAY SEMINAR ENTITLED MARINE CORROSION AND ITS PREVENTION IN SMALL VESSELS JOIN REAL TIME OR AS AN ONLINE DELEGATE
IIMS has joined forces with the British Stainless Steel Association (BSSA) to deliver an essential and special one day seminar called ‘Marine Corrosion and its Prevention in Small Vessels’. The day’s seminar programme will be delivered by Dr Mike Lewus, Technical Advisor, BSSA on Tuesday 23 January 2018 at Lakeside, North Harbour, Portsmouth. Delegates who cannot be there in person may join online live via Zoom and take the whole day’s programme.
Who should attend? This seminar will suit marine surveyors, marine engineers designers and specifiers interested in material degradation mechanisms in the marine environment and selecting fit-for purpose materials.
An outline of the day This one day course gives a comprehensive overview of the fundamental principles of corrosion and forms of corrosion that beset marine metals including, stainless steels, aluminium alloys, copper/nickel and titanium alloys. The types of corrosion commonly found above and below the waterline of small vessels and the factors which influence the rate of degradation are considered. For completeness protection methods, elements of failure analysis and illustrated case studies are to be discussed.
What will you learn?
– Recap on fundamental corrosion principles including, driving force for electrochemical activity and principles of galvanic corrosion
– An understanding of the corrosion mechanisms that undermine the performance of stainless steel and other ‘marine metals’ and associated metrics
– An appreciation of what environmental factors influence corrosion above and below the waterline and how this impacts material selection
– Consider how to minimise corrosion through material selection, improved design and other strategies i.e. cathodic protection, changing electrode potential, surface treatments etc.
– Become familiar with important aspects of failure analysis; inspection, sample preparation, analytical techniques and diagnostic methodologies
The day’s course will be delivered in six sections as follows:
1) Corrosion: Fundamental Principles 2) Forms of corrosion in ‘marine metals’ 3) Corrosion above the waterline 4) Corrosion below the waterline 5) Corrosion prevention strategies 6) Failure analysis and case studies
Delegates will take away a course manual, a certificate. In addition copies of the video made on the day will be available to all delegates. And you will earn a valuable 5 CPD points t00 - what a great start to the year!
The cost of the day, to include all course materials, lunch and refreshments is just £120. Please indicate if you will be there in person, or if you plan to join in an online capacity.
