Hello

We are converting the CO2 Removal Section at our Ammonia Plant from conventional Benfield system to Benfield LoHeat System. Anchor bolts of material ASTM A307 will be installed on heavy steel structure, carrying a load of 350 tons.

The supplier has offered hot dip galvanized anchor bolts; previously we have always used bare anchor bolts (w/o any coating).

Is it all right to use hot dip zinc plated anchor bolts in concrete foundations or there are some areas of concern that need to be evaluated/ controlled during fabrication of anchor bolts?
