You obviously need to know how thick it is. There is a system of sheet metal gauge based on sheet 1 inch thick, which weighs (for steel) 41.82 lb/sq ft. The gauge number corresponds to a factor which you use to multiply this figure, depending on the thickness. See Wikipedia 'Sheet Metal Gauge' for details. Galvanised steel is slightly different to plain steel.

What types of metal can be galvanized?

The current types of metal that may be galvanized include steel and iron. They are usually galvanized with zinc. This protects against corrosion and adds robustness to the metal.


What are the properties of galvanized iron?

Galvanized iron is iron that has been coated with a layer of zinc to protect it from corrosion. This zinc coating increases the durability and longevity of the iron, making it resistant to rust and other forms of corrosion. Galvanized iron is commonly used in outdoor and industrial applications due to its corrosion-resistant properties.

Is galvanized iron homogenous or heterogeneous mixture?

Steel is galvanized by giving it a surface coating of zinc. Heterogenous mixtures have visible boundaries between the components. Homogeneous mixtures have no visible boundaries because mixing occurs at the molecular level. Galvanized steel is thus a heterogeneous mixture.
