Remark A : Impact test on material grades SM400,SM490, SM520,SM400B,SM490YB, SN400B,SN490B, 43C and 50C with thickness
> 12 mm. at 0 C
B : Impact test on material grades 43B, 50B, S275JR with thickness > 12mm. at 20 C
C : It is permissible to vary the carbon and manganese contents (ladle analysis) for grades 50B and 50C on the basis of an
increase of 0.06% manganese content for each decrease of 0.01% carbon or vice versa up to maximum manganese
content of 1.60% and maximum carbon of 0.22% for grades 50B and 50C.
D :The yield radio (max.) for all thickness of materials under grades A992 is 85%
E : For grades 50 steel of thickness 20mmand under , the tensile strength shall be a minimum of 485 N/mm 2.
F : A maximum of manganese of 1.50% is permissible , with an associated reduction of the carbon maximum of 0.03%
G :For the h section, when the t1 s 9mm or less, the upper limit of the yield point or proof stress shall not be applied.
H :For the H section , when the t1 is 9mm or less, the upper limit of the yield radio shall be 85%
- Material under TIS compulsory standard are for domestic use only , while materials under other
standards are for exportation.
