Metals
Alloy steels
Low-alloy steel may be quenched
and tempered to obtain yield
strengths of 80 110 ksi.
Maximum carbon content of
0.20% to limit the hardness
of any coarse-grain
microstructure.
The heat treatment consists of
quenching [rapid cooling
with water or oil from at least
1650 F to about 300-400 F],
then tempering by reheating
to at least 1150 F and
allowing to cool. Tempering
greatly improves toughness
and ductility.

A53 carbon
A500 carbon
Cold-formed welded and seamless round, square, rectangular, or special shape structural tubing for
bolted and welded general structural purposes.
A501 carbon
Hot-rolled welded and seamless round, square, rectangular, or special shape structural tubing for bolted
and welded general structural purposes.
A514 alloy
Structural shapes, plates and bars for welded buildings and bridges where weight savings or added
durability are needed; atmospheric corrosion resistance is about four times that of A36 steel.
