In this post I'll talk about and give details about ASTM A29. First let's describe it and then have a look at its material's properties.
Ok let's start with ASTM A29 chemical composition.
Learn more about chemical composition.
Now it's the mechanical properties turn:
Learn more about the what is allowable stress.
I ranked materials according to their yield strengths and ASTM A29 currently ranks 146 in my yield strength index. This means there are other 145 materials that are more resistant.
Note: I've analysed 134 materials in order to create an yield strength index. Check my astm material's comparison post for more details.

What is ASTM A29?
ASTM A29 is a Specification for Steel Bars, Carbon and Alloy, Hot-Wrought, General Requirements for 121 tion for Steel Rivets and Bars for Rivets, Pressure Vessels.Category

This specification covers a group of common requirements which, unless otherwise specified in the purchase order or in an individual specification, shall apply to carbon and alloy steel bars.Ok let's start with ASTM A29 chemical composition.

Allowable Stress
Depends on the project (And its factor of safety).Learn more about the what is allowable stress.
My Material's Rank
While engineers will often look for the cheapest material they can use, I took a different approach to material's selection to help newbie students.I ranked materials according to their yield strengths and ASTM A29 currently ranks 146 in my yield strength index. This means there are other 145 materials that are more resistant.
Note: I've analysed 134 materials in order to create an yield strength index. Check my astm material's comparison post for more details.
