| Product Name | Steel Plates for Industrial Buildings | Structural steel plates designed for industrial construction applications |
| Material Grade | A36 / A572 Gr.50 / S235JR / S355JR / Q235B / Q345B | International equivalents: A36≈S235JR≈Q235B; A572 Gr.50≈S355JR≈Q345B |
| Standard Compliance | ASTM A36 / ASTM A572 / EN 10025-2 / GB/T 700 / GB/T 1591 | Meets major international structural steel standards for building construction |
| Chemical Composition (C) | ≤ 0.26% (A36) / ≤ 0.23% (S355JR) | Carbon content controls weldability and strength |
| Chemical Composition (Mn, Si, P, S) | Mn: ≤ 1.60% / Si: ≤ 0.40% / P: ≤ 0.035% / S: ≤ 0.035% | Controlled alloying elements ensure structural integrity and low brittleness |
| Tensile Strength | 400–550 MPa (S235JR) / 470–630 MPa (S355JR) / 400–550 MPa (A36) | Per EN 10025-2 and ASTM A36/A572 standards |
| Yield Strength | ≥ 235 MPa (S235JR / Q235B) / ≥ 345 MPa (S355JR / Q345B) / ≥ 250 MPa (A36) | Minimum yield strength for structural load-bearing performance |
| Elongation | ≥ 20% (S235JR) / ≥ 20% (A36) / ≥ 19% (S355JR) | Measured on gauge length L0 = 5.65√S0; ensures ductility under load |
| Thickness Range | 3 mm – 150 mm | Wide thickness range covering floor plates, wall panels, and structural frames |
| Width Range | 1000 mm – 4500 mm | Available in standard and custom widths to suit industrial building layouts |
| Length Range | 2000 mm – 18000 mm | Cut-to-length service available; standard mill lengths upon request |
| Surface Finish | Hot-rolled (HR) / Blast-cleaned Sa 2.5 / Primer-coated | Surface treatment options to enhance corrosion resistance and paint adhesion |
| Application | Industrial warehouses, steel-framed factories, workshops, bridges, equipment platforms | Suitable for primary structural members, secondary framing, and cladding support |
| Certification | ISO 9001:2015 / CE Marking / Mill Test Certificate (EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2) | Full traceability with third-party inspection available (SGS, BV, TÜV) |
| Packaging | Bundled with steel strapping; wooden dunnage; seaworthy export packing available | Rust-preventive oil applied for long-distance shipping and outdoor storage |
| MOQ | 5 Metric Tons per grade/size | Mixed grades accepted for full container load (FCL) orders |
Ordered 30 tons of ASTM A36 plates at 12 mm nominal thickness for column base plates on a warehouse project in Oregon. Upon arrival, three plates in one bundle measured 11.4 mm, outside the EN 10029 Class B tolerance we had specified. We flagged the issue and the team responded within four hours, arranged a replacement shipment of conforming plates within nine days, and provided a credit note for inspection costs. The replacement material was fully within spec and came with correct 3.1 MTRs. Issue was handled professionally once raised. Rating reflects the initial problem, not the resolution.
