ASTM A572 Grade 50 vs ASTM 1011 CS
ASTM A572 Grade 50 vs ASTM 1011 CS
(OP)
We have a job that specifies ASTM A572 grade 50 (Actually AASHTO M270 Grade 50). We need plate that is only 1/8" thick. It's for a shim underneath the sole plate on a steel bridge girder. We can't seem to find a supplier that provides 572 in that thickness. Is 1011 CS a suitable substitute or is there a better recommendation?

CS grades have no defined yield or tensile strength requirement.

Over 8" in width and 0.230" or over in thickness
Over 48" in width and 0.180" or more in thickness
No one should legitimately be selling A572 in 1/8" thickness.
