Description

SSPC Guide 20 – Guide for Applying Thick Film Coatings and Surfacings Over Concrete Floors (Technology Guide 20)

This Guide discusses techniques and procedures to select and apply resinous coating systems over concrete floors. These thick-film systems (greater than 500 micrometers [µm] [20 mils]) include self-leveling systems, slurry systems, broadcast systems, mortar systems, fabric-reinforced systems, spray applied systems, and non-waterproffing and underlayment membranes. Application of thin-film coatings (less than 500 µm; [20 mils]) and sealers, terrazzo flooring, membrane systems designed for waterproofing, and primary and secondary containment systems is beyond the scope fo this Guide.
