GB/T 3274-2017 in English

ChinaStandards.net is in charge of this English translation. In case of any doubt about the English translation, the Chinese original shall be considered authoritative.

This standard is developed in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009.

This standard is developed by revision after combining GB 912-2008 Hot-rolled Sheets and Strips of Carbon Structural Steels and High Strength Low Alloy Structural Steels and GB/T 3274-2007 Hot-rolled Plates and Strips of Carbon Structural Steels and High Strength Low Alloy Structural Steels.

This standard replaces GB 912-2008 Hot-rolled Sheets and Strips of Carbon Structural Steels and High Strength Low Alloy Structural Steels and GB/T 3274-2007 Hot-rolled Plates and Strips of Carbon Structural Steels and High Strength Low Alloy Structural Steels. The following main changes have been made with respect to GB 912-2008 and GB/T 3274-2007:

——The delivery length of steel strips with defects allowed is revised as that not exceeding 6% of the total length of each roll of steel strip (see 5.6.4);

——The inherent quality requirements are added (see 5.7);

——The inspection batch weight is expanded and revised as batching by furnace (see 7.2).

This standard was proposed by China Iron and Steel Industry Association.

This standard is under the jurisdiction of SAC/TC 183 National Technical Committee on Iron and Steel of Standardization Administration of China.

The previous editions of standard replaced by this standard are as follows:

——GB/T 912-1989 and GB 912-2008.

——GB/T 3274-1988 and GB/T 3274-2007.



Hot-rolled Plates, Sheets and Strips of Carbon Structural Steels and High Strength Low Alloy Structural Steels

1 Scope

This standard specifies order contents, dimension, shape and weight, technical requirements, test methods and inspection rules as well as packaging, marking and certification of hot-rolled plates, sheets and strips of carbon structural steels and high strength low alloy structural steels.

This standard is applicable to hot-rolled plates, sheets and strips of carbon structural steels and high strength low alloy structural steels with the thickness no greater than 400 mm (hereinafter referred to as steel plates, sheets and strips).

The designation and chemical component (heat analysis) of steels shall meet the requirements of GB/T 700 and GB/T 1591. The permissible deviation for chemical component of finished steel plates, sheets and strips shall meet the requirements of GB/T 222.

5.2 Smelting process

Steels shall be smelted with oxygen converter or electric furnace.

5.3 Delivery condition

Steel plates, sheets and strips shall be delivered in hot-rolled, control-rolled or heat treatment condition.

5.4 Mechanical property

5.4.1 The tensile strength and percentage elongation after fracture of steel plates, sheets and strips with thickness less than 3 mm shall meet the requirements of GB/T 700 and GB/T 1591, and the percentage elongation after fracture is permitted to be 5% (absolute value) less than that specified in GB/T 700 or GB/T 1591. As required by the Demander, the yield strength of steel plates, sheets and strips may be in accordance with the requirements of GB/T 700 and GB/T 1591.
