New Specification for Standard Specification for Textured Epoxy-Coated Steel Reinforcing Bars

1. Scope

This specification covers deformed and plain steel reinforcing bars with protective textured epoxy coating applied by the electrostatic spray method.

Keywords

coating requirements; concrete reinforcement; corrosion resistance; textured epoxy coating; steel bars.

Rationale

Current ASTM standards A775, A934, and A1078 have no consideration for the surface texture of the bar. Application of a textured material requires a slightly different process, testing, and development length considerations .

The title and scope are in draft form and are under development within this ASTM Committee.
