View Sample Alloy Digest Data Sheet (PDF)

Since 1952, Alloy Digest has been the leading reference for materials property data on metals and alloys used throughout the world. Featuring graphs, charts and tables, these sheets give facts and figures on composition or characterization, physical and mechanical properties, heat treatment, and machinability.

HPS 100W is specified in ASTM A 709 (Standard Specification for Carbon and High-Strength Low-Alloy Structural Steel Shapes, Plates, and Bars and Quenched-and-Tempered Alloy Structural Steel Plates for Bridges) and is being added to AASHTO M270. Initial applications were planned to be those in which an owner bridge engineer would approve the use of HPS 100W. This steel would be most useful for depth control over piers in long-span girder bridges or controlling the size of high-stressed elements in long-span steel truss bridges.
