1. Scope | ||||||||||||||||||||
1.1 General—This specification covers deformed and plain low-alloy steel bars in cut lengths and coils for concrete reinforcement intended for applications where restrictive mechanical properties and chemical composition are required for compatibility with controlled tensile property applications or to enhance weldability. The standard sizes and dimensions of deformed bars and their number designations are given in Table 1. 1.2 Grade—Bars are of two minimum yield
strength levels: namely, 60 000 psi [420 MPa] and 80 000 psi [550
MPa], designated as Grade 60 [420] and Grade 80 [550],
respectively.
1.3 Plain bars, in sizes up to and including 21/2 in. [63.5 mm] in diameter in coils or cut lengths, when ordered, shall be furnished under this specification. For ductility properties (elongation and bending), test provisions of the nearest smaller nominal diameter deformed bar size shall apply. Requirements providing for deformations and marking shall not be applicable. 1.4 Controlled Tensile Properties—This specification limits tensile properties (Table 2) to provide the desired yield/tensile properties for controlled tensile property applications. 1.5 Welding—This specification limits
chemical composition (6.2)
and carbon equivalent (6.4)
to enhance the weldability of the material. When this steel is to
be welded, a welding procedure suitable for the chemical
composition and intended use or service should be used. The use of
the latest edition of AWS D1.4/D1.4M is recommended. The AWS
D1.4/D1.4M Welding Code describes the proper selection of the
filler metals, preheat/interpass temperatures, as well as,
performance and procedure qualification requirements.
1.6 Requirements for alternate bar sizes are presented in Annex A1. The requirements in Annex A1 only apply when specified by the purchaser (see 4.2.5). 1.7 The text of this specification references notes and footnotes that provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes, excluding those in tables, shall not be considered as requirements of this specification. 1.8 This specification is applicable for orders in either inch-pound units (Specification A706) or in SI units [Specification A706M]. 1.9 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 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 this specification. 1.10 This specification does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this specification to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. |
