Galvanized Column In Soil.
(OP)
I have a contractor that would like to place a galvanized column directly onto a pad footing below grade instead of bring a concrete pier above ground.
What is the easiest way to protect the galvanized column from the soil?
Is the galvanizing enough? Probably not.

Helical piles are galvanised and if you google it you will find plenty of information on the performance of galvanising in soils.
