ASTM A572/A572M-15 pdf free.Standard Specification for High-Strength Low-Alloy Columbium-Vanadium Structural Steel.
This specification covers five grades of high-strength low-alloy structural steel shapes, plates, sheet piling, and bars. Grades 42 [290], 50 [345], and 55 [380] are intended for riveted, bolted, or welded structures. Grades 60 [415] and 65 [450] are intended for riveted or bolted construction of bridges, or for riveted, bolted, or welded construction in other applications.
3. Requirements for Delivery
3.1 Structural products furnished under this specification shall conform to thc requirements of the current edition of Specification A6/A6M. for the specific structural product ordered, unless a conflict exists in which case this specification shall prevail.
3.2 Coils are excluded from qualification to this specification until they are processed into a finished structural product. Structural products produced from coil means structural products that have been cut to individual lengths from a coil.
4. Materials and Manufacture
4.1 The steel shall be killed
5. Chemical Composition
5.1 The heat analysis shall conform to the requirements prescribed in Table 2 and Table 3.
5.2 The steel shall conform on product analysis to the rcquircments prescribed in Table 2 and Table 3. subject to the product analysis tolerances in Specification A6/A6M.
6. Mechanical Properties
6.1 Tensile Properties:
6.1.1 The material as rcprcsented by the test specimens shall conform to the tensile properties given in Table 4.
7. Test Reports
7.1 In addition to the Test Reports requirements in Specification A6/AoM. when Specification A588/A588M is substituted for Specification A572/A572M. the test report shall include the statement “Specification A588/A588M substituted.”
