Standard Specification for Plates, Carbon Steel, Structural Quality, Furnished to Chemical Composition Requirements
ABSTRACT
This specification covers structural quality carbon steel plates in standard and non-standard grades furnished to chemical composition requirements. The materials shall conform to carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, silicon, and copper contents of its specified grade. Values are also given to specify the range, limit, and maximum chemical compositions of the carbon steel.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers structural quality carbon steel plates furnished to chemical composition requirements.
1.2 The plates are available in several standard steel grades and non-standard grades.
1.3 The plates are usually furnished in the as-rolled (hot-rolled) condition.
1.4 Supplementary requirements are provided for additional requirements that may be specified on the order.
1.5 When 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 utilized. See Appendix X3 of Specification A6/A6M for information on weldability.
1.6 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
1.7 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

This document is not an ASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of an ASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version
of the standard as published by ASTM is to be considered the official document.
