	Corrugated galvanised iron - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Corrugated galvanised iron roofing in Mount Lawley, Western Australia.
		The sheets are usually galvanised to prevent the iron from rusting.
		Galvanised sheets with simple corrugations are also being gradually displaced by 55%Al-Zn coated steel (GALVALUME® steel) or coil-painted sheets with complex profiles.

	Technical notes: Using traditional products: galvanised roof coverings (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Galvanising is the process of applying a coating of zinc to a surface of iron or steel to provide a corrosion resistant surface.
		Corrugated wrought iron, in almost the same form as found today, was imported into Australia from the late 1840's.
		This iron has a 125mm (5") pitch (the width of the corrugation) and is of a heavier gauge (thickness) than its modern counterpart.

	Iron and steel - Corrugated iron - Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand
		It is technically light steel sheet that has been galvanised (treated with a coating of zinc on both sides) to prevent rusting, then rolled into corrugations at either 3 or 5 inches (76 or 127 millimetres).
		Corrugated iron was widely used in rural areas as a general-purpose building material.
		From the early 20th century onwards corrugated iron was mainly used as a roofing material, traditionally painted red or green.

	Technical notes: Why any old gal iron won't do (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The ‘gal iron’ that became such an important part of the Australian vernacular is in fact galvanised corrugated steel.
		The appearance and weathering patterns of corrugated galvanised sheets are closely related to their method of manufacture.
		Pitched roofs on which galvanised corrugated iron are fixed are typically very visible as they contribute to the picturesque skyline and consist of a very large proportion of the total external cladding of a structure.

	Corrugated galvanised iron (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.umd.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Corrugated galvanised iron, commonly abbreviated CGI, is a building material composed of sheets of hot-dip galvanised mild steel cold-rolled to have a linear corrugated pattern in them.
		For roofing purposes, the sheets are laid somewhat like tiles, with a lateral overlap of two or three corrugations, and a vertical overlap of about 150 mm, to provide for waterproofing.
		Galvanised sheets with simple corrugations are also being gradually displaced by zincalume or powder-coated sheets with complex profiles.

	Timber Building in Australia
		Light purlins, nailed directly to the portal rafter, supported the corrugated fibre cement roof sheet, while infill wall panels between the portal columns supported the weather board lining to the bottom half of the external wall and asbestos sheeting to the top half (see figure 8).
		Corrugated galvanised iron had become rare for all types of building by 1943 so painted or fl corrugated iron was used for walling.
		Corrugated fibre cement roof sheet was widely used instead of galvanised iron.

		This is a summary of an article on Corrugated galvanised iron.
		The corrugations are described in terms of pitch (the distance between two crests) and depth (the height from the top of a crest to the bottom of a trough).
		By eliminating a frame, nails and their holes are also eliminated, so that the corrugated iron remains waterproof.

	Minor repairs: metal roofing - EPA/QPWS
		Corrugated galvanised iron is the most common metal roof cladding found on earlier buildings in Queensland.
		Corrugated iron and steel have been widely used throughout Australia, proving to be strong, durable, relatively light and easily transported.
		Galvanised or zinc-coated steel is still manufactured in Australia and is available in a range of thicknesses and strengths, and in several different weights (thicknesses) of zinc coating.

	Storm Damage & the Philosphy of Repair - National Trust Guide
		Corrugated galvanised iron is one of the most widely used roofing materials in Australia.
		Galvanised iron acquires a significant patina as it ages, and has the ability to be readily shaped and repaired.
		Cast iron half round and ogee pattern gutters were probably the first used, with later lead, copper, timber and box and secret gutters being used in later years.

	Hot-dip galvanizing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.umd.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		It is the process of coating iron or steel with a thin zinc layer, by passing the steel through a molten bath of zinc at a temperature of around 460 °C. Zinc "rusts" to form zinc oxide, a fairly strong material that stops further rust, protecting the steel below from the elements.
		Hot-dip galvanized steel strip (also sometimes loosely referred to as galvanized iron) is extensively used for applications requiring the strength of steel and resistance to corrosion.
		Individual metal articles, such as steel girders or wrought iron gates, can be hot-dip galvanized by a process called batch galvanizing.

	Galvanization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This remains a useful and broadly applied technology, but the term "galvanization" has largely come to be associated with zinc coatings, to the exclusion of other metals.
		In current use, it typically means hot-dip galvanizing, a chemical process that is used to coat steel or iron with zinc.
		Zinc oxide is a fine white dust that (in contrast to iron oxide) does not cause a breakdown of the substrate's surface integrity as it is formed.

		The stump and its galvanised iron ant cap formed an effective deterrent to termites and ensured dry conditions within the house during flooding and tropical downpours.
		Roofs were originally sheeted using short lengths of corrugated galvanised iron, which were lapped down the roof and fixed with lead head galvanised nails.
		Downpipes are 3 inch round pipes formed out of galvanised iron with a folded seam on the outside placed closest to the wall or post to which they are fixed using strap brackets.

	Paul Dadson enthuses
		The use of corrugated iron for roofing of railway stations was common place in the 19th century, but there are also many individual railway buildings clad in corrugated iron.
		The improvised use of corrugated iron as a temporary expedient has discredited its aesthetic value and its undeniable importance in 19th century building history.
		The disturbing thing is that the good examples of corrugated iron buildings are still being lost along with the inconsequential and there seems to be a lack of appreciation and discernment of what is worthy of conservation and what is not.
