 Steel for Cars: Types of Steel in Automotive Industry Applications
Steel is one of the most reliable metals for auto parts manufacturing.
Originally, the automotive sector utilized steel for cars because it offers the
hardness, strength, and high strength-to-weight ratio that vehicle parts
require. As a result, vehicle makers can design and assemble various vehicle
components with the desired properties.

❑Steel used in general design applications must

have properties that can be shown to result in
structures that are safe and serviceable.

❑Basic mechanical properties of steel that are

important for achieving safe and serviceable
designs include: yield strength, tensile-
to-yield strength ratio, elongation at tensile
strength, and length of yield plateau.
According to BNBC-2020 and ACI 318-2014
ASTM A615/A615M- Carbon steel.
ASTM A706/A706M- Low alloy steel.
ASTM A1035- Low carbon cromium steel.

Tensile Testing of Reinforcing Bar
Control on Yield Strength and Tensile Strength

ACI 318-2014 clarifies that reinforcements without a

sharply defined yield point shall be at 0.2% proof
stress, which was at 0.35% strain in ACI 318-2011 as
shown below.
Control on Yield Strength and Tensile Strength

BNBC-2020 specifies that deformed reinforcing bar

with a specified yield strength fy exceeding 420N/mm2 shall
be permitted, provided fy shall be the stress corresponding to
a strain of 0.35% and the bars otherwise conform to one of
the ASTM specifications: ASTM A615/A615M, ASTM
A706/A706M.

Deformed steel used under gravity load conditions

(i.e., dead, live, ice, snow, and rain) requires
reliable yield strength with less emphasis on
ductility, whereas deformed steel used under
seismic load conditions requires more emphasis on
elongation and tensile-to-yield strength ratio.
