Corrosion under insulation (CUI) refers to the external corrosion of piping and vessels fabricated from carbon manganese, low alloy and austenitic stainless steel that occurs underneath externally clad/jacketed insulation due to the penetration of water. By its very nature CUI tends to remain undetected until the insulation and cladding/ jacketing is removed to allow inspection or when leaks to atmosphere occur. CUI is a common problem shared by the refining, petrochemical, power, industrial, onshore and offshore industries. The European Federation of Corrosion (EFC) Working Parties WP13 and WP15 have worked to provide guidelines on managing CUI together with a number of major European refining, petrochemical and offshore companies including BP, Chevron-Texaco, Conoco-Phillips, ENI, Exxon-Mobil, IFP, MOL, Scanraff, Statoil, Shell, Total and Borealis. The guidelines within this document are intended for use on all plants and installations that contain insulated vessels, piping and equipment. The guidelines cover a risk-based inspection methodology for CUI, inspection techniques (including non-destructive evaluation methods) and recommended best practice for mitigating CUI, including design of plant and equipment, coatings and the use of thermal spray application, types of insulation, cladding/jacketing materials and protection guards. The guidelines also include case studies.

The PCI Design Handbook is the industry's best working tool for architects and engineers who use prestressed and precast concrete. Recent changes in building codes and standards are the most significant in 40 years, making it imperative that practicing structural architects keep up with these changes.
PCI will be hosting 6th Edition Design Handbook seminars all around the country in the upcoming year. The seminar fee of $300 includes a copy of the 6th Edition Handbook (which lists at $260), seminar notes, and lunch. Participants will also receive a FREE one-year PCI membership!
