ASTM A633/A633M-24
Active Standard: Standard Specification for Normalized High-Strength Low-Alloy Structural Steel Plates
ASTM A633/A633M
Scope
1.1 This specification covers normalized high-strength low-alloy structural steel plates for welded, riveted, or bolted construction.
1.2 This material is particularly suited for service at low ambient temperatures of ā50āĀ°F [ā45āĀ°C] and higher where notch toughness better than that expected in as-rolled material of a comparable strength level is desired.
1.3 Four grades, designated GradesāA, C, D, andāE are covered by this specification. GradeāA provides a minimum yield point of 42āksi [290āMPa]. GradesāC andāD provide a minimum yield point of 50āksi [345āMPa] in thicknesses up to 2.50āin. [65āmm], inclusive and 46āksi [315āMPa] in thicknesses over 2.50āin. [65 mm]. GradeāE provides a minimum yield point of 60āksi [415āMPa] in thicknesses up to 4.0āin. [100āmm], inclusive and 55āksi [380āMPa] in thicknesses over 4āin. [100 mm].
1.4 Current practice normally limits plates furnished under this specification to maximum thickness of 4 in. [100 mm] for Grades A, C, and D, and to a maximum thickness of 6 in. [150āmm] for Grade E. However, the maximum thickness of the plates is limited only by the capacity of the composition to meet the specified mechanical property requirements.
1.5 When the steel is to be welded, it is presupposed that a welding procedure suitable for the grade of steel and intended use or service will be utilized. See AppendixāX3 of Specification A6/A6M for information on weldability.
1.6 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.
1.7 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
