ASTM A992 steel is the most commonly used wide flange beam steel, containing various alloying elements such as vanadium or niobium, copper, nickel, chromium and molybdenum, which significantly improve its strength and other properties.
For example, its mechanical properties are much better than A572-50 and A36, with tensile strength and yield strength of 65ksi and 65ksi respectively.

What is ASTM A992 material?
ASTM A992 (A572 Grade 50) steel is the most used construction-based structural steel in existence. It is used to make I beams, Wide Flange, channels, plates, angles, and other shapes.
What is the ASTM A992 equivalent to?
ASTM A992/A992M equivalent to EN 10025 S355J2,Australian AS/NZS 3678: Grade 350 L20; Canadian G40.,In China, the corresponding national standard material is GB/T 1591-2018 High Strength Low Alloy Structural Steel.
What is the difference between ASTM A992 and A36?
The main advantage of A992 is the improved materials, and like A572 GR 50, A992 also has a cost advantage over A36. Due to the wide range of applications, A992 has a very wide range of applications, covering general construction, building frames, bridges, and more.
