7. HOT DIP GALVANIZING

Contractor shall pre clean steel work in accordance with accepted methods to produce an acceptable surface for quality hot dip galvanizing. ( Contractors Galvanizing procedures ) Galvanize steel work by the hot dip process in accordance with ASTM A 123/ 123M. Galvanize bolts, nuts, washers and steel hardware components in accordance with ASTM A 153/ 153M. Safeguard steel work against steel embrittlement in conformance with ASTM A 143. Handle all steel work to be galvanized in such a manner as to avoid any mechanical damage and to minimize distortion. Coating requirement shall conform to paragraph 6.1 of ASTM A 123/123M, table 1 of ASTM A153/153M as appropriate. Surface finish must be continuous, adherent, as smooth and evenly distributed as possible and free from any defect. Finished hot dip galvanized steel work shall withstand normal handling and normal use of the steel work. The maximum area to be repaired is defined in accordance with ASTM A 123/123M section 6.2 Any repaired work after the hot dip galvanizing at contractors facilities shall be the responsibility contractor and the repair procedure submitted by contractor shall be followed.

8. INSPECTION AND TESTING

The contractor shall receive purchasers representative for spot inspection on hot dip galvanized steel work. All visual inspection and tests shall be in accordance with ASTM A 123/ 123M, A 153/153M as applicable to determine the thickness of the zinc coating on steel surface. Contractor shall furnish Certificate of Compliance with ASTM standards and specifications herein listed. The Certificate must be signed by the contractor and contain a detailed description of the material processed. The Certificate shall include information as to the ASTM standard used for the coating.
