We are building a public school addition in Southern Califronia at Desert Hot Springs High School.

The structural stee testing firm states that on ASTM A992-02 steel that if we have the following it does not conform to specifications. Is there any +/- tolerance for these values.

Please call me at (909) 793-4687 Ext. 111 and I will fax the test report results.

As example Tensile Str. = 76,800psi, Yield point 67,000psi, yield to tensil ration 0.87 with ASTM showing (max.) at 0.85.

This does make look like common sense to us.
