7、entary requirements that shall apply (see S1through S3), and3.1.7 Certification and Test Report Requirements (see Sec-tion 10).4. Manufacture4.1 Melting PracticeThe steel shall be made by any of thefollowing processes: basic-oxygen or electric-furnace.4.1.1 The steel may be cast by a continuous proc

8、ess, or iningots.4.2 DiscardA sufficient discard shall be made to securefreedom from injurious segregation and piping.4.3 Control Cooling:4.3.1 Rails shall be control cooled in accordance with thefollowing procedure, except when produced from vacuum-degassed steel or control cooled blooms, in which

9、case the railsmay be air cooled and 4.3.2 4.3.6 are not applicable.4.3.2 All rails shall be cooled on hot beds or runways untilfull transformation is accomplished, and then charge immedi-ately into the containers. In no case should the rail be chargedbelow 725F (386C).4.3.3 The temperature of the ra

10、ils before charging shall bedetermined with reliable equipment at the head of the rail atleast 12 in. (305 mm) from the end.4.3.4 The cover shall be placed on the container immedi-ately after completion of the charge and shall remain in placefor at least 10 h. After the removal or raising of the lid

11、 of thecontainer, no rails shall be removed until the temperature of thetop layer of rails has fallen to 300F (149C) or lower.4.3.5 The temperature between an outside rail and theadjacent rail in the bottom tier of the container at a point notless than 12 in. (305 mm), nor more than 36 in. (914 mm),

12、 fromthe rail end shall be recorded. This temperature shall be thecontrol for judging rate of cooling.4.3.6 The container shall be so protected and insulated thatthe control temperature shall not drop below 300F (149C) in7 h from the time that the bottom tier is placed in the container.If this cooli

13、ng requirement is not met, the rails shall beconsidered control cooled provided the temperature at alocation not less than 12 in. (305 mm) from the end of a rail atapproximately the center of the middle tier does not drop below300F (149C) in less than 15 h.1This specification is under the jurisdicti

Chemical Requirements5.1 H

18、eat or Cast AnalysisAn analysis for each heat or castof steel shall be made by the manufacturer to determine thepercentage of the elements specified in Table 1. The analysisshall be made from a test sample taken preferably during thepouring of the heat or cast and shall conform to the require-ments

19、in Table 1.5.2 When ladle tests are not available, finished materialrepresenting the heat may be product tested.
