1.19 Dissimilar Materials

To prevent bimetallic corrosion, dissimilar metals shall not be used. Where fasteners/screws

are used, these shall be of a similar durability to the columns.

Isolate dissimilar metals that are prone to galvanic action. Examples of isolation materials

include rubber, Teflon or bitumen tape. Non-conductive materials such as elastomeric

spacers shall be used to keep aluminium alloy parts from direct contact with steel or other

dissimilar metals in the presence of moisture to avoid galvanic corrosion. Avoid metal

components coming in direct contact with cement surfaces when corrosion could occur;

for example copper & cement.

1.20 Surface treatments and Protective Coatings

The column materials must comply with the relevant design standards for durability and

shall have a life expectancy greater than the specified intended life.

Where applicable, corrosion protection shall be carried out in accordance with the

appropriate standards, for the following lighting column materials:

• Steel

All lighting columns and outreach arms shall be hot dipped galvanized in accordance

with AS/NZS 4680. The average coating mass shall not be less than 390 g/m², (equivalent

to a nominal coating thickness of 55 microns).


MP-13-PRC-SP-001 20

Fasteners shall be galvanized as specified in AS 1214.

All galvanizing vent holes/drainage holes shall be sealed where they could allow ingress

of rainwater.

Within the salt spray zone (ISO 9223 Category C4), the AS/NZS 2312 galvanizing

designation of HDG390 will not provide sufficient protection. For these columns, the lives

to first major maintenance must be extended by application of suitable organic barrier

coatings as recommended in Tables 5.2 and 5.3 of AS/NZS 2312.

The underside of flanged bases bolted to concrete foundations also require additional

protection against crevice corrosion and the galvanizing should also be epoxy coated

to a minimum thickness of 150µm.

The outer surfaces of galvanized ground planted lighting columns and stub bases shall

be further protected to 100 mm above finished surface level (ground or concrete) and

to the base of the column, with a continuous self-priming non-conductive barrier

coating (epoxy-mastic or similar) at least 350µm thick.

Proprietary 100% volume solids polyurethane and polyurea coatings for ground planted

columns and stub bases are available that will extend the life even further, and an NZTA

approved system should be applied where the specified service life is greater than 25

years.

Repairs to any damaged surface protection of the steelwork shall be carried out in

accordance with Section 8 of AS/NZS4680 for damaged galvanizing, except that the

maximum permitted damaged or uncoated area shall not exceed 40mm2. Repairs to

damaged organic barrier coatings shall be by reinstatement of the system.

Application and repair of all organic barrier coatings shall be in accordance with the

written instructions to be provided by the manufacturer of the coating(s). Surface

preparation prior to coating shall be by sweep blasting as specified in Appendix I of

AS/NZS4680, unless not required by the coating manufacturer (e.g. when using an etch

primer over degreased new galvanizing).

• Aluminium

Aluminium lighting columns require no specific corrosion protection other than the

application for ground planted columns of a non-porous, electrically insulating bitumen-

containing coating with a minimum layer of 250µm, or the required thickness of any

other material (e.g. helically wound polymer or petrolatum tape) that provides the same

degree of protection. The coating should only be applied after degreasing and an

appropriate treatment to ensure adhesion.

This coating should be applied to external surfaces of the embedded column section

extending to a level 100mm to 150mm above finished ground level. Internal surfaces

below ground level may be filled with clean free draining material e.g. river sand.

Aluminium in contact with concrete shall be similarly protected where moisture is

present and corrodents may be trapped between the surfaces.

Non-conductive materials such as elastomeric spacers shall be used to keep aluminium

alloy parts from direct contact with steel or other dissimilar metals in the presence of

moisture to avoid galvanic corrosion.

All parts of the enclosures shall be surface treated during manufacture to ensure protection

from the effects of moisture during transportation, prolonged storage, installation and


MP-13-PRC-SP-001 21

service. All materials shall be selected to minimise the potential for corrosion under their

service conditions.

Application and repair of all organic barrier coatings shall be in accordance with the

written instructions to be provided by the manufacturer of the coating(s). Surface

preparation prior to coating shall be by sweep blasting as specified in Appendix I of AS/NZS

4680, unless not required by the coating manufacturer (e.g. when using an etch primer over

degreased new galvanizing).

Full details of all paint systems offered shall be provided with the tender and shall be

approved by MPA.

1.21 Painting and Durability

Protection provided by both the column materials and the coating systems, may be shorter

than the specified intended life of the lighting column, and due consideration should be

given to the maintenance programme or renewal requirements at the planning and design

stage.

Durability is expressed in terms of the material or coating life to the first major maintenance.

The specified intended life is dependent on both the atmospheric and foundation soil

corrosivity classification for the local micro environment.

The durability of a lighting standard in its environmental exposure shall be such that it

remains fit for purpose during the design working life given the appropriate level of

maintenance.

Surfaces shall be prepared and paints or coatings applied in accordance with vendor

recommendations or coatings specialist recommendations. Paint all mild steel, proprietary

equipment, components exposed to the view of occupants and components likely to

corrode.

The contractor shall allow for the painting with a good quality paint specification of all

equipment, e.g. fans, and other plant items, mounting brackets, supports, etc., (whether of

wood or metal) particularly where corrosion or rotting is possible.

This shall include the following:

• All steel supports.

• All steel equipment and panels.

• Immediately inside all inlet and exhaust louvers.

Immediately before any equipment is delivered to the site, assembled or erected, all

surfaces which require painting and which will be inaccessible after assembly or erection

shall be thoroughly cleaned and painted.

Immediately after the installation of equipment, the sub-contractor shall check the paint

and touch up all damaged spots. If signs of rusting are apparent, rusted areas shall be

cleaned, primer painted and touched with finish paint.

After the primer coating has been approved by the Engineer the contractor shall paint the

steel pipework with a white top coat. No insulation shall be installed on the pipework until

the top coat has been inspected and approved by the Engineer.

Mitestingscellaneous steel supplied by the subcontractor shall be painted to the Engineer's

approval and finish coated such that it blends with the existing plant.

Welds made by the contractor shall be properly cleaned down before being painted.


MP-13-PRC-SP-001 22

Exterior painting shall not be done in rainy, damp, or dusty weather. All surfaces shall be

completely dry at the time of painting.

Where possible all shop painting shall be by spraying. Where shop applied paint surfaces

are damaged they shall be made good to "as new" condition at the completion of the

Contract.

1.21.1 Park Painting

To accommodate any painting by another Contractor for the Principal. The MEC

Contractor shall undertake their works:

• To accommodate the physical paint application without detrimental performance of

the equipment or system.

• In a sequence that allows the services to be painted, to be agreed with the Principal,

e.g. post first fix painting prior to second fix installation of equipment.

All MEC equipment and materials requiring masking shall be masked by the MEC

Contractor prior to painting, overspray that hinders the performance of the equipment or

systems shall be cleaned according to the equipment manufacturers and paint system

manufacturers’ recommended cleaning procedure

1.22 Galvanising

Galvanising shall be by hot dipped process for all components, with a thickness of zinc

coating as specified in the relevant standards. The zinc coating shall be smooth, clean,

uniform thickness and free from all defects. The preparation for galvanising and the

process of galvanising itself shall not in any way adversely affect the mechanical properties

of any coated materials. Fabricate all items with this in mind. Inadequate consideration of

the thermal stresses during galvanising will lead to distortion and subsequent rejection by

the Engineer.

Where practical, all damaged areas, e.g. all drilling, punching, cutting and bending of

parts shall be completed and all burrs removed before the galvanising process is applied.

Where this is not possible a cold galvanising system shall be used to make good the

damaged area.

1.23 Identification

1.23.1 General

Identify the Works as required by the relevant standards or regulations or as otherwise

indicated herein.

Ensure colours, letters, arrows and labels are plainly visible at the angle from which the

Works are most likely to be viewed. Use English.

1.23.2 Marking

All lighting columns and outreach arms shall be clearly and durably marked with the

following information:
