Standard Specification for Zinc-Coated (Galvanized) Steel Bars for Concrete Reinforcement

SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers steel reinforcing bars with protective zinc coatings applied by dipping the properly prepared reinforcing bars into a molten bath of zinc.  
1.2 This specification is applicable for orders in either inch-pound units (as Specification A767) or SI units (as Specification A767M).  
1.3 The values stated in either SI or inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. Within the text, the inch-pound units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents. Therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with this specification.
