Designation:A36/A36M19Standard Specification forCarbon Structural Steel1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A36/A36M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope*1.1 This specification2covers carbon steel shapes,plates,and bars of structural quality for use in riveted,bolted,orwelded construction of bridges and buildings,and for generalstructural purposes.1.2 Supplementary requirements are provided for use whereadditional testing or additional restrictions are required by thepurchaser.Such requirements apply only when specified in thepurchase order.1.3 When the steel is to be welded,a welding proceduresuitable for the grade of steel and intended use or service is tobe utilized.See Appendix X3 of Specification A6/A6M forinformation on weldability.1.4 The text of this specification contains notes or footnotes,or both,that provide explanatory material.Such notes andfootnotes,excluding those in tables and figures,do not containany mandatory requirements.1.5 For structural products produced from coil and fur-nished without heat treatment or with stress relieving only,theadditional requirements,including additional testing require-ments and the reporting of additional test results,of Specifi-cation A6/A6M apply.1.6 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.Within the text,theSI units are shown in brackets.The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents;therefore,each system is tobe used independently of the other,without combining valuesin any way.1.7 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recom-mendations issued by the World Trade Organization TechnicalBarriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:3A6/A6M Specification for General Requirements for RolledStructural Steel Bars,Plates,Shapes,and Sheet PilingA27/A27M Specification for Steel Castings,Carbon,forGeneral ApplicationA307 Specification for Carbon Steel Bolts,Studs,andThreaded Rod 60 000 PSI Tensile StrengthA500 Specification for Cold-Formed Welded and SeamlessCarbon Steel Structural Tubing in Rounds and ShapesA501 Specification for Hot-Formed Welded and SeamlessCarbon Steel Structural TubingA502 Specification for Rivets,Steel,StructuralA563 Specification for Carbon and Alloy Steel NutsA563M Specification for Carbon andAlloy Steel Nuts(Met-ric)A668/A668M Specification for Steel Forgings,Carbon andAlloy,for General Industrial UseA1011/A1011M Specification for Steel,Sheet and Strip,Hot-Rolled,Carbon,Structural,High-Strength Low-Alloy,High-StrengthLow-AlloywithImprovedFormability,and Ultra-High StrengthA1018/A1018M Specification for Steel,Sheet and Strip,Heavy-ThicknessCoils,Hot-Rolled,Carbon,Commercial,Drawing,Structural,High-Strength Low-Alloy,High-StrengthLow-AlloywithImprovedFormability,and Ultra-High StrengthF568M Specification for Carbon and Alloy Steel ExternallyThreaded Metric Fasteners(Metric)(Withdrawn 2012)4F1554 Specification for Anchor Bolts,Steel,36,55,and105-ksi Yield Strength1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee A01 on Steel,Stainless Steel and Related Alloys and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeA01.02 on Structural Steel for Bridges,Buildings,Rolling Stock and Ships.Current edition approved July 1,2019.Published July 2019.Originally approvedin 1960.Last previous edition approved in 2014 as A36/A36M 14.DOI:10.1520/A0036_A0036M-19.2For ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Applications,see related Specifi-cations SA-36 in Section II of that Code.3For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.4The last approved version of this historical standard is referenced onwww.astm.org.*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this standardCopyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.1 F3125/F3125M Specification for High Strength StructuralBolts andAssemblies,Steel andAlloy Steel,Heat Treated,Inch Dimensions 120 ksi and 150 ksi Minimum Ten
