1、Designation:A722/A722M18Standard Specification forHigh-Strength Steel Bars for Prestressed Concrete1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A722/A722M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revis
2、ion.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This specification covers Type I and Type II high-strength steel bars intended for use in prestressed concreteconstruction or in pr
3、estressed ground anchors.Type I bars havea plain surface.Type II bars have surface deformations.Barsare of a minimum tensile strength level of 150 000 psi 1035MPa.1.2 A supplementary requirement(S1)is provided for usewhere bend tests of bars are required by the purchaser.Thesupplementary requirement
4、 applies only when specified in thepurchase order.1.3 The text of this specification references notes andfootnotes which provide explanatory material.These notes andfootnotes(excluding those in tables and figures)shall not beconsidered as requirements of the specification.1.4 This specification is a
