1、Designation: A633/A633M 01 (Reapproved 2011)A633/A633M 13Standard Specification forNormalized High-Strength Low-Alloy Structural Steel Plates1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A633/A633M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in
2、 the case of 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.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope Scope
3、*1.1 This specification covers normalized high-strength low-alloy structural steel plates for welded, riveted, or boltedconstruction.1.2 This material is particularly suited for service at low ambient temperatures of 50F 45C and higher where notchtoughness better than that expected in as-rolled mate
4、rial of a comparable strength level is desired.1.3 Four grades, designated Grades A, C, D, and E (essentially former Specification A633 without a grade designation) arecovered by this specification. Grade Aprovides a minimum yield point of 42 ksi 290 MPa in thicknesses through 4 in. 100 mm,inclusive
5、. Grades C and D provide a minimum yield point of 50 ksi 345 MPa in thicknesses up to 2.50 in. 65 mm, inclusive and46.0 ksi 315 MPa in thicknesses over 2.50 in. to 4.0 in. 65 to 100 mm, inclusive. Grade E provides a minimum yield point of60 ksi 415 MPa in thicknesses up to 4.0 in. 100 mm, inclusive
6、and 55 ksi 380 MPa in thicknesses over 4 in. to 6 in. 100 to150 mm, inclusive.1.4 Current practice normally limits plates furnished under this specification to the maximum thicknesses shown in 1.3. Theindividual manufacturer should be consulted on size limitations for other product forms.1.5 When th
7、e steel is to be welded, it is presupposed that a welding procedure suitable for the grade of steel and intended useor service will be utilized. See Appendix X3 of Specification A6/A6M for information on weldability.1.6 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded as s
8、tandard. Within the text, the SI units are shownin brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of theother. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with this specification.2. Referenced Documents2.
