Course Details
The aims of the CCAQ are to provide practical experience on simulated floor areas and gain a basic knowledge and understanding of the following:
- Nuclear safety
- SCW codification and assicoated content
- Surface preparation and associated inspection of Concrete and Steel surfaces
- Theory of coatings
- General application conditions
- Products used and associated inspections/ packaging
Objectives:
- To use information gained to competently prepare surfaces / materials and apply coating to concrete and steel surfaces within nuclear rooms (EPR) in accordance with the Specification for Coating Works (SCW)
- To have the ability to self-check and challenge non conformity
