Overview The 2017A Florida Steel Sheet, Metallic-Coated by the Hot-Dip Process Code provides detailed guidelines for the specification, production, and application of steel sheets coated with various metallic layers, including zinc, aluminum, and zinc-aluminum alloys, through the hot-dip process. These metallic coatings are designed to enhance the steel sheets’ resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for use in construction applications such as roofing, siding, and structural components, especially in environments prone to humidity and exposure to the elements.

The code includes specifications for coating thickness, adhesion, mechanical properties, and quality control measures to ensure that the metallic-coated steel sheets meet the necessary performance standards. The 2017A edition aligns with industry standards such as those from the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI), incorporating Florida-specific amendments to address the state’s unique environmental challenges.
