Removal of Forms Concrete Corrosion
Because cements with naturally low occurring levels of chromates may react with zinc, it is important to ensure that forms and supports are not removed before the concrete has developed the required strength to support itself. Normal form removal practices may be utilized if the cement contains at least 100 ppm of chromates in the final concrete mix or if the hot-dip galvanized bars are chromate-passivated according to ASTM A 767.
Ductility and strength of reinforcing steel are important to prevent brittle failure of reinforced concrete. Studies of the effect of galvanizing on the mechanical properties of steel reinforcing bars have demonstrated that the tensile, yield and ultimate strength, ultimate elongation, and bend requirements of steel reinforcement are substantially unaffected by hot-dip galvanizing, provided proper attention is given to steel selection, fabrication practices, and galvanizing procedures.
The effect of the galvanizing process on the ductility of steel bar anchors and inserts after being subjected to different fabrication procedures also has been investigated. The results demonstrate conclusively that, with correct choice of steel and galvanizing procedures, there is no reduction in steel’s ductility.
