Regents Park Mosque, London (UK)
Her Majesty the Queen officially opened London’s Regents Park Mosque in March 1976. The Dome Structure, approximately 20.6 metres diameter and 12 metres high, was manufactured from mild steel lattice sections and cross-bracings by Tubeworkers Ltd. This Dome section has been protected against corrosive attack using the following specification – grit blasted to SA3 standard, metal sprayed with zinc to 100 microns (0.004”) nominal thickness and subsequently sealed using an olive green inhibitive sealer to Zn4/a. The prime intention of this protective system was to extend the period from erection to first maintenance, thus avoiding costly repeated maintenance programs.
