Coating on wood and wood composites is subject of Advancements in Coatings Series in Seattle.As part of its ongoing Advancements in Coatings Series, the FSCT FSCT Federation of Societies for Coating Technology FSCT Fire Support Control Terminal will host "Coating Wood and Wood Composites: Designing for Durability." The three-day symposium, to be held July 23-25 at the Doubletree Seattle Airport in Seattle, WA, features a unique three-track program, bringing together all professionals who specify and use coatings on wood. Co-sponsored with the Journal of Architectural Coatings, the program includes presentations specifically for architects and will offer continuing education units certified by the American Institute of Architects The American Institute of Architects (AIA) is a professional organization for architects in the United States. Organized in 1857, the Institute conducts various activities and programs to support the profession and enhance its public image, including periodically awarding the AIA . Attendees will represent the entire supply chain, including coatings formulators, laboratory and field testers, architects, specifiers, building maintenance, painting contractors and applicators, raw material suppliers, and end users. The program will also feature tabletop exhibits and site visits to local mills. The preliminary program includes the following: Monday, July 23 To Design, First Know the Substrate (morning session) Plenary Lecture -- Bulletproof Wood Composites: Fact or Fiction? -- Fred Kamke, Oregon State University Oregon State University, at Corvallis; land-grant and state supported; coeducational; chartered 1858 as Corvallis College, opened 1865.
