AFNOR standards for steel materials

This group of AFNOR standard specifications covers carbon and alloy steels, plates and forgings used in boilers and pressure vessels, high-strength low-alloy steels, heat-treatable steels, hot and cold-rolled plates for cold forming, the properties of assorted types of steel wire, free cutting steels, steels for concrete reinforcement and prestressed concrete and the properties for railway service rails and accessories. This article also contains standards for tool, stainless, heat-resisting and valve steels.

Review of AFNOR Standards for steel consists of 3 volumes. It contains formally approved AFNOR standard classifications, guides, practices, specifications, test methods, terminology and related material such as proposals.

Covers:

The following data is given for each standard: standard number and year, grade, chemical composition and mechanical properties (yield point, tensile strength, notch toughness). When deemed useful, steel type, manufacturing method, thickness of plate, heat treatment and other data are described.
