Recent Developments in the Worldwide Use - Performance of Hot-Dip Galvanized (HDG) Rebar

This presentation and accompanying research summary demonstrate hot-dip galvanized (HDG) rebar’s performance protecting reinforced concrete structures and highlight technical research confirming its chloride durability in concrete via a study conducted by the Galvanizers Association of Australia (GAA). The resulting study also produced a model for determining chloride penetration in concrete and concludes that reduced concrete cover can be considered in structures that use HDG rebar, which has a substantial impact on sustainability (raw material usage and length of service). Along with this new research on chloride durability modeling, a review of recent case studies, inspections and installations confirms its longevity and growing popularity amongst specifiers to provide long term corrosion resistance in concrete.
