IS 2062 Properties (Chem., Mech. & Rankings) rev. 2022

In this post I'll talk about and give details about IS 2062. First let's describe it and then have a look at its material's properties.

What is IS 2062?

IS 2062 is a Specification for Steel for General Structural Purposes.

Category

Structural Steel

Scope

This standard covers the requirements of steel including micro-alloyed steel plates, strips, shapes and sections (Angles, tees, beams, channels, etc), flats, bars, etc. for use in structural work.

Ok let's start with IS 2062 chemical composition.

Chemical Composition

Grade E 250

C max.

0.22

Mn max.

1.50

S max.

0.045

P Max.

0.045

Si max.

0.40

Carbon Equivalent

0.41

Learn more about chemical composition.

Now it's the mechanical properties turn:

Yield Strength

Grade E 250 BR

250 MPa min.

Learn more about what is yield strength.

Tensile Strength

Grade E 250 BR

410 MPa min.

Learn more about what is tensile strength.

Elongation (min.)

0.23.

Learn more about what is elongation.

Reduction of Area (min. %)

Not Required.

Learn more about reduction of area.

Impact Requirements

Grade E 250 B0

27J min. at 0°C

Learn more about impact testing (charpy v notch).

Other properties:

Density

7800 - 8000 kg/m3 (around 7.9 g/cm3 or 0.285 lb/in3).

Learn more about density.

Elastic Modulus

190 GPa (27557 ksi) - 210GPa (30458 ksi).

Learn more about the Elastic Modulus.

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 IS 2062 currently ranks 86 in my yield strength index. This means there are other 85 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.

References

Citation

When you need to include a fact or piece of information in an assignment or essay you should also include where and how you found that piece of information.

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:

Luz, Gelson. IS 2062 Properties (Chem., Mech. & Rankings). Materials Blog. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>

Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.

Other References

IS 228, IS 808 and others⁣
