1、Designation: A704/A704M 06 (Reapproved 2011)Standard Specification forWelded Steel Plain Bar or Rod Mats for ConcreteReinforcement1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A704/A704M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case o
2、f revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers material in mat (or sheet) formfabricated from hot-rolled, plain ste
3、el bars or rods to be usedfor the reinforcement of concrete. Mats consist of two layers ofbars or rods which are assembled by welding at right angles toeach other.1.2 This specification is applicable for orders in eitherinch-pound units (as A704) or in SI units as A704M.1.3 The values stated in eith
4、er inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded as standard. Within the text, the SI units areshown in brackets. The values stated in each system are notexact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used inde-pendently of the other. Combining values from the two systemsmay result in nonconform

17、terial as described in Section 4 shall be metwhen a specimen is tested across a point of weld. Weld shearstrength requirements shall be in compliance with Section 6.6. Mechanical Requirements6.1 Strength of Connections in Welded Plain Bar or RodMatsIn order to assure adequate weld shear strength bet
18、weenlongitudinal and transverse bar or rod, weld shear strengthtests, as described in 6.3.2, shall be made. The minimumaverage shear value shall not be less than 25 000 lbf 172 Nmultiplied by the nominal area of the larger bar or rod in in.2mm2.6.2 Number of Tests:6.2.1 One bar or rod of each size o
19、r grade to be used in thefabrication of the mat shall be tested for conformance with theprovisions of 4.1 or 4.2 for each 75 000 ft27000 m2 of matsor fraction thereof.6.2.2 One sample consisting of longitudinal bars or rodswith not less than two connections on the same transverse baror rod shall be
