As part of the five year review process, this standard is being re-balloted to include a terminology section in the standard. The A01 Main Committee ballot (A01 23-01 Item 30) received a negative vote due to the missing Terminology section which is a requirement per the Form and Style for ASTM Standards released September 2022. The second change is to display the phosphorous and sulfur requirements in Section 5 to 3 decimal places which is in alignment with other grades listed in A29 Standard Specification for General Requirements for Steel Bars, Carbon and Alloy, Hot Wrought for the same elements.
