ASTM A36 Steel Plate – Completely Specifications

ASTM A36 steel plate and beams has been deemed as top rated materials in construction
activities and structural building.

Therefore, how come it gets so popular in different industries? Why there were so many people
buying this material?
So today we are going to introduce this magic material – ASTM A36 Steel plate.

For your better understanding, we will explain from different aspects as followings:

What is ASTM A36

The A36 steel developed by ASTM international is one of the popular and widely used
carbon structural steels which is mild and hot rolled. ASTM A36 has ultimate welding
properties and it is perfectly suitable for punching, grinding, drilling, tapping and machining
processes. Unlike higher-performance alloys, these structural steel plate properties allow
the steel to be used in many applications.

Why A36 steel plate is the top rated material in constructions

As we know, it is kind of carbon steel plate, so it’s not a expensive material which have very
good performance and strengths to bear the various kind of system pressure. With high
durability and even over period it could be recycled totally. Back to furnace and to make
fresh steel products.

So, A36 steel plate is the base material for all the constructions and structural, it has the
wide range of applications and could be used for many purposes based on the thickness
and corrosion resistance of the alloy.

As a matter of fact, a lot of the manufactured products that use this A36 steel plate include
warehouses, industrial and commercial structures, buildings (including pre-fabricated
buildings), pipes, tubings, cabinets, enclosures, and housings.

Moreover, A36 steel could be made to various base construction materials.

ASTM A36 steel is generally available in the many forms i.e. it is available in rectangle bar,
square bar, circular bar and also steel shapes like angles, H-beams, I-beams, and
channels. This steel plate is also known as mild steel in South East Asian Region.

And below materials are listed in ASTM A36 standard specification that could be made in
this kind of carbon steel material.
Steel Rivets, referred ASTM A502 Grade 1
Steel nuts, ASTM A563/M
Bolts, ASTM A370 Grade A or F 568M
High strength bolts, ASTM A325/M
Anchor bolts F1554
Cast steel, ASTM A27/M Grade 65-35 (450-240)
Carbib steel forgings, in ASTM A668 CLASS D
Cold-formed tubing ASTM A500 Grade B
Hot formed tubing ASTM A501
Hot rolled steel plate, coil and strip, ASTM A570/M, Grade 36

Chemical composition of A36 steel plate

It consists of carbon (C) content 0.25 – 0.29%, Copper (Cu) content 0.20%, Iron (Fe)
content 98.0 percentage, Manganese (Mn) content 1.03 percentage, Phosphorus (P)
content 0.04 percentage, Silicon (Si) content 0.280 percentage and Sulfur (S) content 0.050
percentage. With excellent properties, this steel plate can be bolted, riveted and welded in
the construction of buildings, bridges, and buildings and for any general structural purposes.
