Zinc coatings - Guidelines and recommendations for the protection against corrosion of iron and steel in structures - Part 2: Hot dip galvanizing
Also Known As:
The DIN EN ISO 14713-2 standard provides guidelines and recommendations for the use of hot dip galvanizing as a method of corrosion protection for iron and steel structures. The standard focuses on the general principles of design that are suitable for articles to be hot dip galvanized after fabrication.
The effectiveness of the hot dip galvanized coating in protecting the article against corrosion depends on several factors, including the application method of the coating, the design of the article, and the specific environment in which the article will be exposed. The standard acknowledges that additional coatings, such as organic coatings, can be applied to further protect the hot dip galvanized article. This combination of coatings is often referred to as a "duplex system."
It is important to note that specific product-related requirements for hot dip galvanized coatings on specific items, such as tubes or fasteners, may supersede the general recommendations provided in this standard. The standard emphasizes that these general guidelines and recommendations should be considered in conjunction with any specific requirements applicable to the particular product.
