In this post I'll talk about and give details about ASTM A739. First let's describe it and then have a look at its material's properties.
Ok let's start with ASTM A739 chemical composition.
Learn more about chemical composition.
Now it's the mechanical properties turn:
Learn more about what is yield strength.
Learn more about what is tensile strength.
Learn more about what is elongation.
Learn more about reduction of area.
Learn more about density.
Learn more about the Elastic Modulus.
Learn more about the poisson ratio.
Learn more about the what is allowable stress.
I ranked materials according to their yield strengths and ASTM A739 currently ranks 62 in my yield strength index. This means there are other 61 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 the difference between Code, Standard & Specification?

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:

What is ASTM A739?
ASTM A739 is a Specification for Steel Bars, Alloy, Hot-Wrought, for Elevated Temperature or Pressure- Containing Parts, or Both.Category
Steel BarsScope
This specification covers hot-wrought, ferritic alloy steel bars for elevated temperature or pressure-containing parts suitable for fusion welding or both.Ok let's start with ASTM A739 chemical composition.

Poisson's Ratio
0.27 – 0.30.Learn more about the poisson ratio.
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 A739 currently ranks 62 in my yield strength index. This means there are other 61 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.
