Answer 2

Galvanization, a general term, is either the work of covering with metal by the use of a galvanic current or the coating of iron or steel with zinc to protect it from rusting.

Galvanizing:Galvanizing is often though ot as the process of hot dip coating steel or iron with zinc. This stops moisture from rusting the base metal and provides a good measure of corrosion resistance. Galvanized steel products are common and relatively inexpensive. Look at the steel "steps" that are screwed into wooden power poles or the steel guardrails on motorways and you're almost certainly looking at galvanized steel.
