ZINC PROTECTS AGAINST CORROSION. RELATED TECHNIQUES, NEW APPLICATIONS

AN ACCOUNT IS GIVEN OF FRENCH STUDIES ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF ZINC AS A PROTECTIVE COATING FOR STEEL. VARIOUS METHODS FOR ASSEMBLING HOT DIP GALVANIZED OR SPRAYED ZINC STEEL, SUCH AS ARC WELDING, BRONZE WELDING AND THE USE OF HIGH STRENGTH BOLTS ARE CONSIDERED. THE ADVANTAGES OF ZINC COATED STEEL FOR USE IN PRESTRESSED CONCRETE ARE DISCUSSED AND EXAMPLES OF CORROSION OF UNPROTECTED STEEL IN CONCRETE IN ATMOSPHERIC AND MARINE ENVIRONMENTS ARE PRESENTED. RESULTS OF VARIOUS TESTS ARE DISCUSSED AND CONCLUSIONS ARE GIVEN. /AUTHOR/
