    ASTM A500
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    ASTM A500 is a standard specification published by the ASTM for cold-formed welded and seamless carbon
    steel structural tubing in round, square, and rectangular shapes. It is commonly specified in the USA for hollow
    structural sections, but the more stringent CSA G40.21 is preferred in Canada. Another related standard is
    ASTM A501, which is a hot-formed version of this A500. ASTM A500 defines four grades of carbon steel
    based primarily on material strength.[1]

    This is a standard set by the standards organization ASTM International, a voluntary standards development
    organization that sets technical standards for materials, products, systems, and services.

    Density
    Like other carbon steels, A500 and A501 steels have a specific gravity of approximately 7.85, and therefore a
    density of approximately 7850 kg/m3 (0.284 pounds per cubic inch).[2]

    Grades
    A500 cold-formed tubing comes in four grades based on chemical composition, tensile strength, and heat
    treatment. The yield strength requirements are higher for square and rectangular than for round tubing. The
    minimum copper content is optional. Grade D must be heat treated.[1]
