(OP)
Curious if anyone has impact tested ASTM A36 at -20F? Also, not sure if there is a difference if the material is hot or cold rolled?

I have seen numerous tests on A36 materials taken from existing structures such as storage tanks. Usually by the time the test temperature is lowered to +20F, I see the CVN values dropping to the 3 to 6 ft# range. It ought to be even lower at -20F. For 1/2" plate one can't assume anything at -20F for A36 unless you buy it with impact tests.
