Failure mechanisms during galvanising

Cel

Hot dip zinc galvanising is used extensively throughout Europe for the corrosion protection of structural steelwork because of its resistance to damage, minimal maintenance requirements, longevity and low lifetime costs. Cracking during the galvanising process can occur, however, particularly in the welded higher strength steels, which are being increasingly used.

These cracks can remain hidden under the zinc layer and are of serious concern with regard to the load carrying capacity, fatigue resistance and integrity of structural members and fabrications used for applications such as stadium roof structures, where public safety is paramount. It is proposed that the causes and mechanisms of cracking are fully investigated and guidance for its eradication produced.
