Ordering Information4.1 Orders for zinc-coated welded wire reinforcement under this specification shall contain the following information:4.1.1 Quantity (weight mass or square ar
17、ea),4.1.2 Name of material (galvanized welded wire reinforcement),4.1.3 Conforms to Specification A1064/A1064M.4.1.4 Required zinc coating weight mass (coated before fabrication) or zinc coating thickness (coated after fabrication),4.1.5 Packaging (see Section 13), and4.1.6 ASTM designation and year
18、 of issue.4.2 The purchaser shall have the option to specify additional requirements, including but not limited to, the following:4.2.1 Wire size number, wire spacing, and sheet or roll width and length,4.2.2 Minimum yield strength or Grade, and4.2.3 Requirements for inspection (see Section 9),5. Ge
19、neral Requirements5.1 The wire used in the manufacture of welded wire reinforcement shall conform to Specification A1064/A1064M. Aftergalvanizing, the welded wire shall meet the required mechanical properties of Specification A1064/A1064M except for the bendtest requirements as prescribed in Table 1
20、 of this specification.5.2 Welded wire reinforcement shall be furnished either in flat sheets, or in rolls, as specified by the purchaser.5.3 The zinc used for coating shall be any grade that conforms to Specification B6.6. Galvanizing6.1 Mass Weight Thickness of Coating and Test:6.1.1 This specific
21、ation includes six classes of coating weight mass when the welded wire reinforcement is coated beforefabrication and four coating thickness grades when the welded wire reinforcement is coated after fabrication. The weight massof zinc coating is based on the measured diameter of the wire when the str
22、ipping method is performed and the nominal diameterfor all other methods, and shall conform to the requirements shown in Table 2 or Table 3. Individual results not more than 10 %below the minimum values specified in Table 2 or Table 3 are allowed if the average of at least two samples from the same
23、coilare equal to or greater than the minimum, individual results shall be not less than 1.08 oz/ft2 330 g/m2.6.1.1.1 When the product is coated before fabrication in a continuous coating process, coating weights are given in Table 2 forvarious zinc coating classes.NOTE 2Zinc coated wire produced as
24、“regular coating” shall have the full surface covered with zinc, but there is no specified minimum weight ofcoating.6.1.1.2 When the product is coated after fabrication in a hot-dip process, coating thickness are given in Table 3 for various zinccoating grades.NOTE 3At the purchasers request the gal
25、vanized coating may be chromate treated. This is to minimize a reaction between the reinforcing steel andfresh portland cement paste. Proprietary chromating solutions of equivalent strength are permitted in place of the generic chemical treatment specified.6.1.2 Magnetic Thickness MeasurementsThe we

The thickness measurement is used to calculate the weight mass by multiplyingit by the surface area of coated wire and by the zinc density. Because this form of testing can yield incon

29、The weight mass shall be determined by stripping the coating from the steel wire specimen inaccordance with Section 8 and Test Method A90/A90M.6.1.2.2 Weighing Before and After GalvanizingThe weight mass shall be determined by weighing the sample before andafter galvanizing. The difference between t
30、he two measurements divided by the surface area of the sample provides the weightmass. The original weighing shall occur after pickling and drying. The second weighing shall occur after cooling to ambienttemperature.6.1.2.3 MicroscopyThe weight mass shall be determined by cross-sectional and optical
31、 measurement in accordance withTest Method B487. A cross-section sample of the steel shall be polished and examined with an optical microscope to determinethe coating thickness. The coating weight mass shall be determined by multiplying coating thickness by the surface area of thecoated sample and b

Foreach magnetic thickness measurement sample, five or more measurements shall be made along the length and width of the sampleso as to represent the entire su
33、rface of the sample. A total of at least fifteen measurements shall be averaged to obtain the coatingthickness. For the microscopy method, five samples shall be tested per lot. Each sample shall be measured on four sides and thetotal of twenty measurements shall be averaged to obtain the coating thi
34、ckness. For the stripping method and the weighing method,three samples per lot shall be measured.NOTE 4Alot shall be as follows: all wire of the same size furnished to the same steel reinforcing specification that has been galvanized within a singleproduction shift.6.2 Handling:6.2.1 The identificat

Finish and Adherence of Coating7.1 The zinc coating shall have no bare spots. The coating shall be free of blisters, flux spots or inclusions, dross, and acid orblack spots. To
36、ensure large continuous length coils, welds are permitted in the finished wire. A matte gray finish appearance shallnot be itself a cause for rejection.7.2 Adherence of CoatingThe coated wire as represented by the test specimens shall be capable of passing a bend test withoutcracking or flaking the
