Overview: 
Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) is a common and challenging problem that occurs in industrial facilities where pipes, vessels, and equipment are insulated for various purposes such as temperature control, energy conservation, and personnel protection. The insulation serves as a protective barrier to prevent heat transfer, but if it becomes compromised or damaged, it can lead to the onset of corrosion on the underlying metal surface.
Course Objectives: 
Explain what CUI is, including the components of a typical CUI system and why it is required in a range of industrial settings
Explain the importance of lab testing on the selection of CUI system components
Identify the common types of coatings applied under insulation and describe their advantages and disadvantages
Outline the factors that need to be considered when selecting insulation
Describe the types of insulation and jacketing commonly used within CUI Protective Systems
Describe the different types of spray-on insulation and their advantages and disadvantages
Summarize the differences between intumescent coatings, high density concrete coatings and cementitious coatings
Explain common design practices used to minimize CUI
Outline the common steps involved in installing a CUI Protective System
Identify the key components of risk-based inspection programs and describe their benefits within a CUI context
Discuss the inspection methods that can be utilized with and without the removal of the CUI Protective System
