Welding of Galvanized Steel
Galvanized steels are welded easily and satisfactorily
by all commonly practiced welding techniques. Closer control
of welding conditions than for uncoated steel is usually
necessary but procedures are simple and well established.
This chapter details procedures for all suitable welding
techniques for galvanized steel including GMA
(gas metal arc), carbon arc, GTA (gas tungsten arc), manual
metal arc, and torch welding. The welding of galvanized
reinforcement for concrete is discussed on page 32.
Work sponsored by International Lead Zinc Research Organization,
New York and carried out by E N Gregory
of The Welding Institute, Cambridge, England, has been
used in recommendations on GMA welding and manual
metal arc welding. Recommendations are based on Australian
practice and terminology. Information has also been supplied by Liquid Air Australia Limited
and Welding Industries of Australia.
