5 They are primarily designed for applications involving bolted connections or forwelding under carefully controlled shop conditions;Type W-Weldable of this type meet minimum strength requirements andare suitable forgeneral welded construction where notch toughness at low temperatures is not a prime may include buildings, compression members of bridges, T-Weldable of this type are suitable for welded construction and may be specifiedwhen low-temperature notch toughness is a prime consideration in design. In such cases Charpy V-notchtesting should be specified by the purchaser to ensure that the impact requirements are R-AtmosphericCorrosion-Resistant Structural of this type display an atmosphericcorrosion resistance approximately four times that of plain carbon steels.* These steels may bereadily welded up to the maximum thickness covered by thisStandard.

6 * These steelsmay be welded readily under normal conditions and are often used in structures in the unpaintedcondition. These steels may be specified when low-temperature notch toughness is a primeconsideration in design. In such cases, Charpy V-notch testing should be specified by the purchaser toensure that the impact requirements are met.*Copper content not exceeding per Q-Quenched and Tempered Low Alloy steel of this type display a very high yieldstrength and good resistance to brittle fracture and are especially suited for bridges and similarstructures. While these steels may be readily welded, the welding and fabrication techniques are offundamental importance and must not adversely affect the properties of the plate , especially the heat-affected number of strength levels are available under this Standard, and are designated by theapproximate yield strength which is incorporated in the Grade Number, similar to thefollowing examples:Metric 230G-(Yield Strength 230 MPa-Type G).

These criteria applystrictly to longitudinal bends, , where the bend line is transverse tothe rolling direction. Transversebends may require up to twice the indicated radius.

8 Since temperature can be a majorcause of bend failure , in no case should bending be carriedout at a metal temperature below 15 of 350 MPa and higher yield strength will require greater bending and hold down force than lowerstrength steels and provisions must be made for a greater than usual degree of cold bending ofstructural shapes is a most difficult task and the steel producer should be consulted beforecold bending of any degree of severity is carried |P a g eCSA grades of CSA steels can be readily welded with the exception ofGrades350G and 400G which can be welded under carefully controlled conditions. It is urged that therequirements of CSA Standard W59-1977 "Welded steel Construction (Metal Arc Welding)" be followedas a suggestions set forth in this guide areintended to meet these requirements.

When the base metaltemperature is below the temperature listed for the welding processand thickness it should be preheated insuch a manner that the surface of the material on which the weld is to be deposited is at or above the suggestedminimum temperature for a distance equal to the thickness of the material but not less than 75mm bothlaterally and in advance of the welding.
