American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) Specifications, Standards, Manuals and Research Reports (1946 - present)

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to survey the mechanical properties of A572 and A588 plates produced in North America. The study focuses on three aspects: chemical properties, tensile properties, and toughness properties. Results from this study can be of benefit to specification-writing bodies and other users interested in the variability of mechanical properties of A572 and A588 plates. The results can also help update present databases on plate properties that do not include modern production techniques and new mills and producers.--Introduction.
