33、plicability to the intended application.6. Chemical Composition6.1 Base Steel:6.1.1 Chemical composition requirements of the base steel are shown in the individual product specifications.6.1.2 An analysis of each heat shall be made by the manufacturer to determine the percentage of carbon, manganese
34、,phosphorus, sulfur, and any other elements specified or restricted by the individual product specification.6.1.3 When desired, product analysis shall be made by the purchaser on finished product. The product analysis so determinedshall meet the tolerances shown in Table 1.6.1.3.1 Capped or rimmed s
35、teels are not technologically suited to product analysis due to the nonuniform character of theirchemical composition, and therefore, the tolerances in Table 1 do not apply. Product analysis is appropriate on these steels onlywhen misapplication is apparent.6.1.3.2 Product analysis for phosphorus or
36、 sulfur is not technologically appropriate because of segregation of these elements innon-killed steels. Product analysis is appropriate only when misapplication is apparent.6.1.3.3 Samples for product analysis shall be drillings through areas stripped free of coating. At least three pieces shall be
37、selected, but if the product of more than one mill lift or coil is involved, at least six pieces shall be selected.6.1.3.4 When supplying High-Strength Low-Alloy Steel (HSLA), some producers use one or more microalloying elements asstrengthening agents or use alloy additions to effect inclusion cont
38、rol, or both. The producer shall be consulted for the specificchemical composition applied. If any alloying addition is known to be of concern to the user, the producer shall be notified of thisconcern.6.1.4 Method of AnalysisThe determination of chemical composition is permitted to be made by any t
39、est method, except incase of dispute, where the referee test methods listed in the section on test methods of Test Methods A751 shall be used.6.2 Coating:6.2.1 Coating AnalysisThe nominal composition of the coating is described in the individual product specification.6.2.2 Method of AnalysisThe dete

45、The determination of the yield strength and tensile strength values shall be based on the as-produced base-metalthickness that shall be obtained by one of the following methods. Unless specified in the order, the producer shall determine themethod to be used; however, in the event of a dispute the m
46、ethod in 7.2.1.2 shall be used.7.2.1.2 The base metal thickness shall be determined by stripping the coating from the ends of the specimen contacting the gripsof the tension testing machine. The thickness measurement shall be made before testing on an end of the specimen that has beenstripped free o
