Hot-Dip Galvanized Product Standards
The specification for hot dip galvanizing of steel reinforcing bars is handled in different ways around the world. Some countries treat steel reinforcing bars in the same way as any other steel product, and the hot dip galvanizing of rebar falls under a general galvanizing standard (see table below). Several other countries have developed product specific standards for the hot dip galvanizing of steel reinforcing bars. These are also listed below:
  Designation Title of Standard
