Eight ASTM International steel standards were recently revised to help address the issue of creep (time-dependent deformation at elevated temperature and constant stress that can lead to failure) for certain steels (9% Chromium-1% Molybdenum). According to ASTM International member Kenneth Orie, a new “Type 2” designation introduced for Grade 91 steels in these standards culminates research…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Scott Orthey, tel +1.610.832.9730; sorthey@astm.org Release #10669

ASTM International’s committee on steel, stainless steel, and related alloys (A01) is creating a specification for a new kind of high-grade, lightweight steel tubes used in construction of bridges, buildings, and more. Specifically, the standard is for cold-formed welded high-strength carbon steel or low-alloy steel hollow structural sections (HSS). These can be used for welded, riveted, or…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Scott Orthey, tel +1.610.832.9730; sorthey@astm.org Release #10593

ASTM International’s committee on steel, stainless steel, and related alloys (A01) proposed a new standard that seeks to improve the durability of steel PT strands used in post tension or bridge stay cable applications. The proposed standard ( WK62898 ) seeks to address infrastructure corrosion and durability throughout the structure life cycle. Dale King, engineering and product development…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, W Scott Orthey, tel +1.610.832.9730; sorthey@astm.org Release #10568

ASTM International’s committee on nonferrous metals and alloys ( B02 ) is proposing two new standards. One is for a zinc-aluminum-copper alloy with improved strength while the other seeks to determine the requirements for die castings with thin walls which can help reduce industry costs. The first proposed standard ( WK 63461 ) is for an alloy that seeks to improve the elevated temperature…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Molly Lynyak, tel +1.610.832.9743; mlynyak@astm.org Release #10564
