Steel structures are often galvanized to ensure durability in harsh environments. However, on occasion, incidents of cracking have occurred in galvanized structures that appear to be induced during the galvanizing process. Such cracking incidences produce a significant cost to the industry, in that repair procedures are often necessary to eliminate any flaws present directly after galvanizing.
