ASTM A36 Carbon Structural Steel

ASTM A36/A36M  Standard Specification for Carbon Structural Steel  

This specification covers carbon structural steel shapes, plates, and bars of structural quality for use in riveted, bolted, or welded construction of bridges and buildings, and 

for general structural purposes.  

ASTM A36 steel is a mild and hot-rolled carbon structural steel. Its superior welding properties make it suitable for applications like punching, grinding, drilling, and tapping. 

Unlike higher-performance alloys, A36 steel is easier to work with while still maintaining strength and durability.

The versatility and affordability of ASTM A36 make it a popular choice for numerous structural and industrial projects, ensuring reliable performance across a wide range of applications.
