Galvanizing standards
National and International Hot Dip Galvanizing Standards
Galvanizers Association can provide detailed advice on compiling your specifications, as well as reviewing design details to maximise the benefits of galvanizing your steel.
Quite simple considerations will go a long way to ensure that your steel is processed quickly and efficiently:
- size and shape of fabrication
- how the fabrication will be connected
- any additional coatings that may be required
