Designation: A 1008/A 1008M – 01aStandard Specification forSteel, Sheet, Cold-Rolled, Carbon, Structural, High-StrengthLow-Alloy and High-Strength Low-Alloy with ImprovedFormability1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A 1008/A 1008M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers cold rolled structural, high-strength low-alloy, and high-strength low-alloy with improvedformability steel sheet, in coils and cut lengths.1.2 Cold rolled steel sheet is available in the designations aslisted in 4.1.1.3 This specification does not apply to steel strip asdescribed in Specification A 109.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system mustbe used independently of the other.2.
