Welding of galvanized metal causes the volatilization of th$ zinc coating. Temporary discomfort as*>ciatcd with metal fume fever may result from such exposure.
Where warranted, control ol weld ing fumes is generally accomplished by providing a mechanic/1 ventilation j>trm. The type of ventilation used is dependent upon the nature- of the welding.

If the port*. ar<: large ami it is necessary to weld moie than a foot from a fixed point, it is difficult to obtain good control of the fume with reasonable air volumes through a syrtem using flexible dvrtJ.
