Construction represents a branch of civil engineering that encompasses a multitude of different disciplines. From planning, designing, building, maintaining, to managing various systems or structures, each phase is crucial for the success of a project. Each phase of this complex process requires thorough knowledge and precise execution. Within this thesis, special attention is given to a specific part of construction techniques: coatings in finishing works in construction. This discipline covers a small but extremely important part of finishing works. Finishing coatings are essential for the protection, aesthetics, and longevity of construction structures. Throughout this thesis, different types of coatings will be explored, including paints, varnishes, epoxy coatings, polyurethane coatings, and specialized coatings for specific conditions. The preparation methods and application techniques of coatings, such as brushing, rolling, and spraying, will be considered. Surface preparation will also be explained in detail as it is a crucial part of the process. The places where coatings are applied are diverse, ranging from industrial facilities like factories and warehouses to residential buildings and commercial spaces. Their applications vary from concrete, metal, to wood, and each material requires a specific type of coating, application methods, and surface treatment. Factors such as durability, weather resistance, ease of maintenance, and places of application will be highlighted when describing coatings in construction. Different types of coatings and some specific coatings will be described. In this way, the aim of this thesis is to provide a comprehensive overview of coatings in construction, emphasizing their importance and contribution to the overall quality of construction projects.
