Optimising the durability of galvanised infrastructures: Key to a sustainable future

In the world of construction, the durability of steel elements plays a key role in the sustainability and efficiency of our infrastructures. In this context, general galvanising emerges as an effective solution offering high durability at low cost.

The secret behind the durability of general galvanising lies in the zinc coating applied to steel items. But how do we actually determine the service life of these items? The Technical Association of Galvanizers (ATEG) has developed an innovative tool which answers this crucial question.

This tool, based on international ISO technical standards, allows the calculation of the environmental corrosion category based on meteorological and environmental data. The aggressiveness of the environment becomes a key parameter to anticipate the lifetime of a general galvanised product.

The advantage of this tool lies not only in its accuracy, but also in its accessibility. Building professionals can now make informed decisions on the selection and maintenance of galvanised steel structures, thanks to a detailed analysis of the environment in which they will be implemented.
