A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been a

3、pproved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope Scope*1.1 This specification covers high-strength low-alloy structural steel shapes, plates, and bars for welded, riveted, or boltedconstruction intended primarily for use as structural members where savings in weight mass or added du

4、rability are important.The atmospheric corrosion resistance of the steel in most environments is substantially better than that of carbon structural steelswith or without copper addition. When properly exposed to the atmosphere, this steel can be used bare (unpainted) for manyapplications (see Note

5、1). This specification is limited to material up to 4 in. 100 mm, inclusive, in thickness.NOTE 1For methods of estimating the atmospheric corrosion resistance of low-alloy steels, see Guide G101.1.2 When the steel is to be welded, it is presupposed that a welding procedure suitable for the grade of

6、steel and intended useor service will be utilized. See Appendix X3 of Specification A6/A6M for information on weldability.1.3 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shownin brackets. The values stated in each system

7、are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of theother. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification.1.4 For structural products produced from coil and furnished without heat treatment or with stress relieving only, the a

8、dditionalrequirements, including additional testing requirements and the reporting of additional test results, of Specification A6/A6M apply.2.

General Requirements for Delivery3.1 Structural products furnished under this specification shall conform to the requirements of the current edition ofSpecification A6/A6M, for the specific structural product ordered, u

10、nless a conflict exists, in which case this specification shallprevail.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

11、 from a coil. Theprocessor directly controls, or is responsible for, the operations involved in the processing of a coil into a finished structuralproduct. Such operations include decoiling, leveling or straightening, hot-forming or cold-forming (if applicable), cutting to length,testing, inspection

12、, conditioning, heat treatment (if applicable), packaging, marking, loading for shipment, and certification.NOTE 2For structural products produced from coil and furnished without heat treatment or with stress relieving only, two test results are to be reportedfor each qualifying coil. Additional req

13、uirements regarding structural products produced from coil are described in Specification A6/A6M.4. Materials and Manufacture4.1 The steel shall be semi-killed or killed.1 This specification is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee A01 on Steel, Stainless Steel and RelatedAlloys and is the direct
