ASTM A709 Grade HPS 50W steel is a kind of low alloy high strength structural steel for bridges building. It owns minimum yield strength at 345Mpa. A709 Grade HPS 50W steel plates have enhanced atmospheric corrosion resistance. For the delivery condition of steel plate A709 Grade HPS 50W, As rolled,Control rolled,TMCP with or without accelerated cooling,or quenching and tempering is all ok.
ASTM A709 Grade HPS 50W structural steel product is availabel in structural shapes, plates and bars, and quenched and tempered alloy steel for structural plates intended for use in bridges. Heat analysis shall be used to determine the percentage of carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, silicon, and copper for the required chemical composition.
