(What is a Work Item? / How to Input to a Work Item)

Work Item: ASTM WK40339 - Revision of A830 / A830M - 11 Standard Specification for Plates, Carbon Steel, Structural Quality, Furnished to Chemical Composition Requirements


Active Standard: A830 / A830M - 11

Developed by Subcommittee: A01.02 | Committee A01 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

Add requirement for killed steels only. Rimmed steels, rimmed and capped steels, and semi-killed steels for structural applications are no longer used or commercially available to any significant extent. It is also recognized that these steelmaking practices are no longer consistent with new steel making technologies that have enhanced the performance of todays structural steels.
