ASTM A529 tensile test for strength of carbon-manganese steel specification covers high-strength carbon-manganese steel shapes, plates, and bars of structural quality for use in riveted, bolted, or welded construction of buildings and for general structural purposes. ASTM A529 covers Grades 50, equivalently 345, and 55, equivalently 380. ASTM A529 specifies for steel specimens to be killed, and as such, be affirmed in the corresponding test report.
Heat and product analysis shall be performed wherein steel materials shall conform to the required chemical compositions of carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, silicon, copper, columbium, chromium, nickel, molybdenum, and vanadium as specified by ASTM A529 tensile test for strength of carbon-manganese steel. ASTM A529 specifies that steel specimens shall also undergo tensile tests and shall conform to required values of tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation.

Recommended Test Machine
Force range of 5 kN to 600 kN (1,125 lbf to 135,000 lbf)
Adjustable test space
The most popular choice for static tension and compression tests
These dual column testers are available in both tabletop and floor standing models
Force range of 300 kN to 2,000 kN (67,500 lbf to 450,000 lbf)
The best choice for performing static tension and/or compression applications when force capacities of 300 kN (67,000 lbf) or more are needed
Includes its own grips
Recommended Testing Accessories
Load ratings from 25 kN to 500 kN (5,625 lbf to 112,500 lbf)
Jaws move laterally in stationary position while grip body moves on adjustment
Works well with round or flat specimens
Load ratings from 100 kN to 500 kN (22,500 lbf to 112,500 lbf)
Best for higher force requirements
