AGA's Marketing Communications Manager, Jeff Cunningham recently spoke at NASCC 2026 highlighting the critical role of proper design in maximizing the performance and longevity of hot-dip galvanized steel. The session focused on practical considerations engineers, fabricators, and specifiers must account for, such as venting and drainage, material selection, and detailing. By emphasizing design early in the project lifecycle, the presentation reinforced how teams can avoid costly rework while improving durability and corrosion protection.

Jeff Cunningham was joined by Sean Joyce from V&S Galvanizing and attendance exceeded 50 industry professionals, reflecting strong interest in the topic and its real-world applications. The audience represented a mix of structural engineers, bridge designers, and steel industry consultants, all looking to better understand how to integrate galvanizing into their projects effectively. The high turnout highlighted the growing demand for resilient, low-maintenance infrastructure solutions.
