Zinc coatings - Guidelines and recommendations for the protection against corrosion of iron and steel in structures - Part 2: Hot dip galvanizing (ISO 14713-2:2009)

ISO 14713-2:2009 provides guidelines and recommendations regarding the general principles of design which are appropriate for articles to be hot dip galvanized for corrosion protection.
The protection afforded by the hot dip galvanized coating to the article will depend upon the method of application of the coating, the design of the article and the specific environment to which the article is exposed. The hot dip galvanized article can be further protected by application of additional coatings (outside the scope of ISO 14713-2:2009), such as organic coatings (paints or powder coatings). When applied to hot dip galvanized articles, this combination of coatings is often known as a “duplex system”.
The guidelines and recommendations in ISO 14713-2:2009 do not deal with the maintenance of corrosion protection in service for steel with hot dip galvanized coatings. Guidance on this subject can be found in ISO 12944-5.
Specific product-related requirements (e.g. for hot dip galvanized coatings on tubes or fasteners, etc.) will take precedence over these general recommendations.

Zinküberzüge - Leitfäden und Empfehlungen zum Schutz von Eisen- und Stahlkonstruktionen vor Korrosion - Teil 2: Feuerverzinken (ISO 14713-2:2009)

Dieser Teil von ISO 14713 bietet Leitfäden und Empfehlungen für die allgemeinen Grundlagen der Gestaltung
von Gegenständen, die zum Schutz gegen Korrosion einen Überzug durch Feuerverzinken erhalten.
Der Schutz des Feuerverzinkungsüberzugs für den Gegenstand hängt von dem zum Aufbringen des Überzugs
angewendeten Verfahren, der Gestaltung des Gegenstands und der spezifischen Umgebung des
Gegenstands ab. Der feuerverzinkte Gegenstand kann durch das nachfolgende Aufbringen zusätzlicher
Beschichtungen (die nicht in den Anwendungsbereich dieses Teils von ISO 14713 fallen) geschützt werden,
z. B. organische Beschichtungen (Anstriche oder Pulverbeschichtungen). Bei Anwendung auf feuerverzinkten
Bauteilen wird dieses kombinierte Beschichtungssystem häufig als „Duplex-System“ bezeichnet.
Die Leitfäden und Empfehlungen in diesem Teil von ISO 14713 erfassen nicht die Instandsetzung des
Korrosionsschutzes für Stahl mit Feuerverzinkungsüberzügen unter Einsatzbedingungen. Ein entsprechender
Leitfaden zur Instandsetzung kann in ISO 12944-5 nachgelesen werden.
Anforderungen, die für ein bestimmtes Produkt gelten (z. B. für feuerverzinkte Überzüge auf Rohren oder
Befestigungselementen usw.), haben eine höhere Priorität als die hier angegebenen allgemeinen
Empfehlungen.

Revêtements de zinc - Lignes directrices et recommandations pour la protection contre la corrosion du fer et de l'acier dans les constructions - Partie 2: Galvanisation à chaud (ISO 14713-2:2009)

L'ISO 14713-2:2009 donne des lignes directrices et des recommandations concernant les principes généraux de conception appropriés aux pièces à galvaniser à chaud pour la protection contre la corrosion.
La protection assurée par le revêtement galvanisé à chaud appliqué sur la pièce dépend de la méthode d'application du revêtement, de la conception de la pièce et de l'environnement spécifique auquel la pièce est exposée. La pièce galvanisée à chaud peut également être protégée par l'application de revêtements supplémentaires (non couverts par le domaine d'application de l'ISO 14713-2:2009) tels que des revêtements organiques (peintures et revêtements poudre). Lorsqu'elle est appliquée aux pièces galvanisées à chaud, cette combinaison de revêtements est souvent appelée «système duplex».
Les lignes directrices et recommandations données dans l'ISO 14713-2:2009 ne traitent pas de l'entretien de la protection contre la corrosion en service assurée pour l'acier par des revêtements galvanisés à chaud. Des lignes directrices correspondantes sont fournies dans l'ISO 12944‑5.
Des exigences spécifiques relatives aux produits (par exemple pour les revêtements galvanisés à chaud sur les tubes et les éléments de fixation, etc.) prévalent sur les présentes recommandations générales.

Cinkove prevleke - Smernice in priporočila za zaščito železnih in jeklenih konstrukcij proti koroziji - 2. del: Vroče pocinkavanje (ISO 14713-2:2009)

Ta del ISO 14713 določa smernice in priporočila glede splošnih načel pri projektiranju, ki so primerna za izdelke, ki bodo vroče pocinkani za zaščito proti koroziji. Zaščita, ki jo daje vroča pocinkana prevleka na izdelku, je odvisna od metode nanosa prevleke, načrtovanja izdelka in določenega okolja, kateremu je bil izdelek izpostavljen. Vroče pocinkan izdelek je lahko nadaljnje zaščiten z nanosom dodatnih prevlek (zunaj področja uporabe tega dela ISO 14713), kot so organske prevleke (barve ali prašno barvanje). Ta kombinacija prevlek, uporabljena za vroče pocinkane izdelke, je pogosto poznana kot »dupleks sistem«. Smernice in priporočila v tem delu ISO 14713 se ne nanašajo na vzdrževanje protikorozijske zaščite in popravljanje jekla s cinkovimi prevlekami. Vodilo na to temo se nahaja v ISO 12944-5. Posebne zahteve, ki se nanašajo na izdelke (t.j. za vroče pocinkane prevleke na ceveh ali sponkah itd.), imajo prednost pred temi splošnimi priporočili.

ISO 14713-2:2009(E) iv © ISO 2009 – All rights reserved Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 14713-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 107, Metallic and other inorganic coatings, Subcommittee SC 4, Hot dip coatings (galvanized, etc.). This first edition, together with ISO 14713-1 and ISO 14713-3, cancels and replaces ISO 14713:1999, which has been technically revised ISO 14713 consists of the following parts, under the general title Zinc coatings — Guidelines and recommendations for the protection against corrosion of iron and steel in structures: ⎯ Part 1: General principles of design and corrosion resistance ⎯ Part 2: Hot dip galvanizing ⎯ Part 3: Sherardizing The principal changes to this part of ISO 14713 compared to ISO 14713:1999 are the following. ⎯ This part of ISO 14713 only provides design guidance for hot dip galvanizing of articles. ⎯ The normative references (Clause 2) have been updated to take into account the very latest standards available to readers. ⎯ Additional guidance on the effect of the iron/steel surface composition has been provided (6.1.1, Table 1). ⎯ Additional information has been provided on the effect of thermal cutting processes (6.4) and the influence of internal stresses in the basis steel during hot dip galvanizing (6.5).
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 14713-2:2009(E) © ISO 2009 – All rights reserved 1 Zinc coatings — Guidelines and recommendations for the protection against corrosion of iron and steel in structures — Part 2: Hot dip galvanizing 1 Scope This part of ISO 14713 provides guidelines and recommendations regarding the general principles of design which are appropriate for articles to be hot dip galvanized for corrosion protection. The protection afforded by the hot dip galvanized coating to the article will depend upon the method of application of the coating, the design of the article and the specific environment to which the article is exposed. The hot dip galvanized article can be further protected by application of additional coatings (outside the scope of this part of ISO 14713), such as organic coatings (paints or powder coatings). When applied to hot dip galvanized articles, this combination of coatings is often known as a “duplex system”. The guidelines and recommendations in this part of ISO 14713 do not deal with the maintenance of corrosion protection in service for steel with hot dip galvanized coatings. Guidance on this subject can be found in ISO 12944-5. Specific product-related requirements (e.g. for hot dip galvanized coatings on tubes or fasteners, etc.) will take precedence over these general recommendations. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

Annex A illustrates some of the important design features, some of which are specific to hot dip galvanizing. Some internal stresses in the articles to be galvanized will be relieved during the hot dip galvanizing process and this may cause deformation or damage of the coated article. These internal stresses arise from the finishing operations at the fabrication stage, such as cold forming, welding, oxy-cutting or drilling, and from the residual stresses inherited from the rolling mill. The purchaser should seek the advice of the hot dip galvanizer before designing or making a product that is subsequently to be hot dip galvanized, as it may be necessary to adapt the construction of the article for the hot dip galvanizing process. The purchaser should be aware of the two distinct types of hot dip galvanizing and take these distinctions into account when designing articles: a) hot dip galvanizing after fabrication – where, after suitable pretreatment, fabricated iron or steel articles are dipped in a bath containing a zinc melt (see ISO 1461); b) continuous galvanizing – where, after suitable pretreatment, sheet materials are continuously fed through a zinc melt and the hot dip galvanized sheet materials are then used to fabricate an article (see EN 10346). 4.2 Surface preparation The design and the materials used should permit good surface preparation. This is essential for the production of a high-quality coating (see 6.2). Surfaces should be free from defects to ensure a coating of good appearance and serviceability. Graphite exposed at the surface of iron castings interferes with wetting by molten metal and those castings that have been annealed may have silica particles in the surface layers which have to be removed in order to obtain a good-quality hot dipped coating. Grit blasting is recommended both before and after annealing. SIST EN ISO 14713-2:2010

ISO 14713-2:2009(E) © ISO 2009 – All rights reserved 3 4.3 Procedures related to design considerations The hot dip bath and associated plant should be of adequate capacity to process the articles to be hot dip coated with zinc. Preferably, articles should be designed to enable coating in a single dipping operation. Articles that are too large for the available baths may be partially immersed and then reversed for length or depth, so that a complete coating is obtained. Partial immersion (and then dipping for a second time to complete the coating) is less common than the single, complete immersion operation. All work has to be secured during immersion in the baths. Bolt holes are often available. Lifting lugs are often incorporated to assist general handling. Articles may be held in racks or jigs; some contact marks may be visible after hot dip galvanizing in such cases. The dipping operation involves vertical movement out of the bath, but the parts being withdrawn may be inclined at an angle. The processing sequence requires circulation of air, pretreatment liquids and zinc to all surfaces of the work piece. Air pockets prevent local surface preparation and give uncoated surfaces; liquids in enclosed air vaporize at the hot dip galvanizing temperature of about 450 °C and the force generated can cause buckling or explosions; excess zinc may adhere poorly, may look unattractive and is wasteful. Suitable articles, e.g. heat exchangers and gas cylinders, may be hot dip galvanized on the outside only. This involves special techniques and equipment (e.g. to push the article into the bath against the buoyancy of the molten zinc) and a specialist galvanizer should be consulted in advance. 4.4 Design features Preferred design features for articles to be hot dip galvanized are shown in Annex A. WARNING — It is essential that sealed compartments be avoided or be vented, otherwise there is a serious risk of explosion that may cause serious injury to operators. This aspect of design should
be given careful consideration and is essential in order to maintain satisfactory standards of health and safety for operators. The provision of holes for venting and draining tubular fabrications also allows a coating to be formed on the inside surfaces and therefore ensures better protection for the article. Occasionally, at sufficiently high levels of residual stress in the component, stress relief may occur at the hot dip galvanizing temperature. This is one of the main causes of unexpected distortion or cracking of the steel component. Symmetrical sections are preferred and, as far as possible, large variations in thickness or cross-section, e.g. thin sheet welded to thick angles, should be avoided, welding and fabrication techniques should be chosen to minimize the introduction of unbalanced stresses and differential thermal expansion should be minimized during welding and processing. Heat treatment may be desirable before hot dip galvanizing. The purchaser should discuss with the galvanizer the requirements for coating and assembly of fabricated components. Compact sub-assemblies (which occupy minimum bath space) are most economical to galvanize. Welding is preferable before hot dip galvanizing, to ensure a continuous hot dip galvanized coating over the weld. Articles should be designed so as to assist the access and drainage of molten metal and so that air locks are avoided. A smooth profile, avoiding unnecessary edges and corners, assists hot dip galvanizing; this, and bolting after galvanizing, improves long-term corrosion resistance. Holes which are necessary in structures for the hot dip galvanizing process are preferably made before assembly and by cutting or grinding off corners of sections; this facilitates the absence of “pockets” in which excess molten zinc can solidify. When already assembled, burning may be the optimum method of producing holes, as the space available for drilling may not allow the hole to be close enough to the edge or corners. 4.5 Tolerances The thickness of the hot dip coating is determined mainly by the nature and thickness of the steel. On mating surfaces and at holes, extra tolerance should be provided to allow for the thickness of the coating metal. For hot dip galvanized coatings on flat surfaces, an allowance of at least 1 mm has been found satisfactory. See ISO 1461 for definitions of significant surfaces and acceptance criteria for the coating. SIST EN ISO 14713-2:2010

ISO 14713-2:2009(E) 4 © ISO 2009 – All rights reserved For threaded work, the situation is more complicated. For example, for hot dip galvanized and centrifuged nuts and bolts, current practices differ according to the country. Either a) the bolts are threaded according to the tolerances laid down in the appropriate specification without allowance being made for hot dip galvanizing and the nuts are then tapped after coating or b) the bolts are undersized (see e.g. Swedish Standard SS 3194) so that standard threads on hot dip galvanized nuts can be used in all cases. ISO 10684 also provides some guidance. 5 Design for storage and transport Hot dip galvanized work should be stacked securely so that the work can be handled, stored and transported safely. Where there is a specific need to minimize the development of wet-storage staining (primarily basic zinc oxide and zinc hydroxide, formed on the surface of the galvanized coating during storage of work in humid conditions), this should be communicated by the purchaser to the galvanizer at the time of ordering and any relevant control measures should be agreed upon. Such measures might include, for example: storage of work such that free movement of air across the surfaces of the work is allowed, the use of spacers to minimize contact areas on the work, or avoidance of close nesting of work (where the design allows this). In accordance with ISO 1461, the development of wet-storage staining shall not be a cause for rejection, provided the coating thickness remains above the specified minimum requirements. 6 Effect of article condition on quality of hot dip galvanizing 6.1 General Mos
