1、Designation:A871/A871M14Standard Specification forHigh-Strength Low-Alloy Structural Steel Plate WithAtmospheric Corrosion Resistance1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A871/A871M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case
2、of revision,the year of last revision.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 high-strength low-alloy steelplate intended for use in tubular structur
3、es and poles or in othersuitable applications.Two grades,60 and 65,may be providedas-rolled,normalized or quenched and tempered as required tomeet the specified mechanical requirements.1.2 The atmospheric corrosion resistance of this steel inmost environments is substantially better than that of car
4、bonstructural steels with or without copper addition(see Note 1).When properly exposed to the atmosphere,this steel can beused bare(unpainted)for many applications.NOTE1For methods of estimating the atmospheric corrosion resis-tance of low-alloy steels,see Guide G101.1.3 When the steel is to be weld
5、ed,it is presupposed thatwelding procedures suitable for the grade of steel and intendeduse or service will be utilized.See Appendix X3 of Specifica-tion A6/A6M for information on weldability.1.4 Supplementary requirements in accordance with Speci-fication A6/A6M are available,but shall apply only w
6、henspecified by the purchaser at time of ordering.1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded as standard.Within the text,the SI units areshown in brackets.The values stated in each system are notexact equivalents;therefore,each system must be used inde-pendently o
7、f the other.Combining values from the two systemsmay result in nonconformance with the specification.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2A6/A6M Specification for General Requirements for RolledStructural Steel Bars,Plates,Shapes,and Sheet PilingA370 Test Methods and Definitions for Mechanical
