Westermann Table 8

This document provides specifications for various structural and heat-treatable steels, including their designation, tensile strength, yield strength, elongation percentage, and chemical composition (carbon, sulfur, phosphorus). It discusses general structural steels intended for general engineering purposes and welding. It also lists case hardening steels and their properties, as well as flame and induction hardening steels and their properties when quenched and tempered. Standard sizes of hot-rolled structural steel products are also referenced.
