  2. Hollow structural section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow_structural_section

    In the recent past, HSS was commonly available in mild steel, such as A500 grade B. Today, HSS is commonly available in mild steel, A500 grade C. Other steel grades available for HSS are A847 (weathering steel), A1065 (large sections up to 50 inch sq made with SAW process), and recently approved A1085 (higher strength, tighter tolerances than ...

  3. Rolled homogeneous armour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolled_homogeneous_armour

    It specifies a harder steel that is nearly identical to AR500 in terms of tensile and yield strength. [5] The Brinell hardness of AR500 is in the 477-534 range. MIL-DTL-46100E specifies a steel of identical hardness. [3] MIL-DTL-32332 specifies ultra-hard steel, with Brinell hardness in excess of 570. [3]

    American steel grades : AISI/SAE steel grades standard; British Standards; International Organization for Standardization ISO/TS 4949:2016; European standards – EN 10027; Japanese steel grades : Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) standard and NK standard; Germany steel grades : DIN standard; China steel grades : GB standard; Czech steel ...

  5. ASTM A500 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASTM_A500

    ASTM A500 is a standard specification published by the ASTM for cold-formed welded and seamless carbon steel structural tubing in round, square, and rectangular shapes. It is commonly specified in the US for hollow structural sections, but the more stringent CSA G40.21 is preferred in Canada.

  6. Purlin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purlin

    In steel building construction, secondary members such as purlins (roof) and girts (wall) are frequently cold-formed steel C, Z or U sections, (or mill rolled) C sections. Cold formed members can be efficient on a weight basis relative to mill rolled sections for secondary member applications.

  7. Structural steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_steel

    The austenizing temperature, the temperature where a steel transforms to an austenite crystal structure, for steel starts at 900 °C (1,650 °F) for pure iron, then, as more carbon is added, the temperature falls to a minimum 724 °C (1,335 °F) for eutectic steel (steel with only .83% by weight of carbon in it).

  8. Rail profile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rail_profile

    Steel is a much stronger material, which steadily replaced iron for use on railway rail and allowed much longer lengths of rails to be rolled. The American Railway Engineering Association (AREA) and the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM) specified carbon, manganese, silicon and phosphorus content for steel rails. Tensile strength ...

  9. A36 steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A36_steel

    A36 steel has a Poisson's ratio of 0.26 and a shear modulus of 11,500 ksi (79.3 GPa). [ 7 ] A36 steel in plates, bars, and shapes with a thickness of less than 8 inches (203 millimeters) has a minimum yield strength of 36 ksi (250 MPa ) and ultimate tensile strength of 58–80 ksi (400–550 MPa).
