Abstract
This specification covers quenched-and-tempered carbon steel and high-strength low-alloy steel plates of structural quality for welded, riveted, or bolted construction. The plates shall undergo heat treatment by heating to a temperature that produces an austenitic structure. Heat and product analyses shall be performed on the material and shall conform to the required amount of chemical composition in carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, silicon, vanadium, columbium, nitrogen, and copper. The plates shall withstand tension test and applicable grade shall conform to the specified mechanical properties such as yield strength, tensile strength, and elongation.
Scope
1.1 This specification covers quenched-and-tempered carbon steel and high-strength low-alloy steel plates of structural quality for welded, riveted, or bolted construction.
1.2 If the steel is to be welded, it is presupposed that a welding procedure suitable for the grade of steel and intended use or service will be used.
1.3 Plates under this specification are available in four grades as follows:
Grade
Yield Strength, min, ksi [MPa]
Tensile Strength, ksi [MPa]
Maximum Thickness, in. [mm]
A
50 [345]
70–90 [485–620]
11/2 [40]
B
60 [415]
80–100 [550–690]
21/2 [65]
C
A
A
2 [50]
D
75 [515]
90–110 [620–760]
3 [75]
A Varies with thickness. See Table 1.
1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system is to be used independently of the other.

What is a Redline?
Why Redline?
A PDF redline is a quick and easy way to compare all of the changes between the current, active standard and the previous version.
With a redline you'll immediately see:
additions
deletions
and other changes between the two standards.
Save Time and Trouble!With a Redline you no longer have to spend time trying to determine what has changed in the new standard! Redlines save you time and ensure you see what the changes are to the standard.
PriceWhen you select the "Standard + Redline" option you get both documents! Best of all, the cost of a Standard + Redline is only slightly more than buying the Active Standard by itself.
Domestic orders are delivered via United Parcel Service (UPS) or United States Postal Service (USPS). Transit
times average 3 to 5 business days. Please be aware that UPS will not deliver packages to Post Office Boxes.
International orders are delivered via courier post services which can be either a postal service, courier
service, or a combination of both. Standard Service is untraceable. Please allow 4-7 weeks for delivery.
Please be aware that carriers will not deliver packages to Post Office Boxes. Because of the variability of
customs processes and procedures in different countries, ASTM International cannot guarantee transit times to
international destinations. Customs duty and taxes are the responsibility of the consignee.
