Category: Benefits of Galvanized Steel

Structural steel often is the material of choice for modern builders. And when design calls for structural steel, the best choice is usually galvanized steel. Here are five reasons why. Galvanized steel is strong and reliable. Hot-dip galvanized steel has the same bend, impact properties, proof strength, and tensile strength of any other structural steel, […]

Hot-dip galvanized steel has been around since 1742. In the nearly-280 years since a French chemist named Paul Jacques Moulin first described the galvanizing process, fabricators and construction engineers all over the world have gathered a tremendous amount of evidence on the durability of galvanized steel. But the million-dollar question — or depending on the […]

The process of hot-dip galvanization is more important than most think. Imagine if things like bridges, lamp posts, and others did not have that protective layer – it would be rusted and would need to be replaced more often, which can be costly. Galvanizing allows the steel to have a much longer life. No one […]
