3 Expression Methods of Designation
Steel designation is composed of 4 parts, i.e., the initial of the Chinese phonetic alphabet "Qu" which represents yield strength, the lower limit of the yield strength, initial of the Chinese phonetic alphabet "Shui" which represents hydropower and steel quality grade symbol. For example, Q490SD, where:
Q——the initial of the Chinese phonetic alphabet "Qu" (yield in meaning) in yield strength;
490——the specified minimum yield strength, MPa;
S——initial of the Chinese syllable of "Shui", which represents hydropower;
D——the quality grade is Grade D.
Where the demander requires the steel plate to have through-thickness characteristic, the symbol representing the through-thickness (Z-direction) characteristic grade shall be added in the above-mentioned designation, for example: Q490SDZ35.
