Title
Standard Specification for Deformed and Plain Carbon-Steel Bars for Concrete Reinforcement
ASTM International
Publication Date:
May 1, 2008
Scope:
This specification covers deformed and plain carbonsteel bars
for concrete reinforcement in cut lengths and coils. Steel bars
containing alloy additions, such as with the American Iron and
Steel Institute and the Society of Automotive Engineers series of
alloy steels, are permitted if the resulting product meets all the
other requirements of this specification. The standard sizes and
dimensions of deformed bars and their number designations are given
in Table 1. The text of this specification references notes and
footnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes and
footnotes (excluding those in tables) shall not be considered as
requirements of the specification.
Bars are of three minimum yield strength levels: namely, 40 000
[280 MPa], 60 000 [420 MPa], and 75 000 psi [520 MPa], designated
as Grade 40 [280], Grade 60 [420], and Grade 75 [520],
respectively.
Hot-rolled plain rounds, in sizes up to and including 2½in.
[63.5 mm] in diameter in coils or cut lengths, when ordered shall
be furnished under this specification in Grade 40 [280], Grade 60
[420], and Grade 75 [520]. For ductility properties (elongation and
bending), test provisions of the nearest smaller nominal diameter
deformed bar size shall apply. Requirements providing for
deformations and marking shall not be applicable.
NOTE 1—Welding of the material in this specification should be
approached with caution since no specific provisions have been
included to enhance its weldability. When steel is to be welded, a
welding procedure suitable for the chemical composition and
intended use or service should be used. The use of the latest
edition of ANSI/AWS D 1.4 is recommended. This document describes
the proper selection of the filler metals, preheat/interpass
temperatures, as well as, performance and procedure qualification
requirements.
This specification is applicable for orders in either inch-pound
units (as Specification A 615) or in SI units (as Specification A
615M).
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 are not exact
equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of
the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in
nonconformance with the specification.
*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
standard.
