ASTM A1064 – Standard Specification for Carbon-Steel Wire and Welded Wire Reinforcement, Plain and Deformed, for Concrete

Description

ASTM A1064 – Standard Specification for Carbon-Steel Wire and Welded Wire Reinforcement, Plain and Deformed, for Concrete

 

ASTM A1064 – This specification covers carbon-steel wire and welded wire reinforcement produced from hot-rolled rod to be used for the reinforcement of concrete.

The steel wire is cold-worked, drawn or rolled, plain (non-deformed, as-drawn or galvanized), or deformed.

Welded wire reinforcement is made from plain or deformed wire, or a combination of plain and deformed wire.

steels and welded wire reinforcements can be tested for quality using standards such as ASTM A1064.

** This standard is specifically useful in accurately conducting a tension test, bend test, and weld shear strength test.

ASTM A1064

The best types of steel wire used in this test include cold-worked, drawn or rolled, plain, or deformed. Welded wire reinforcements can be made from plain or deformed wire.

The diameter of plain wire ASTM suggests with this test ranges from 0.080 mm [0.005 in.] to 19.2 mm [0.757 in.].

The suggested diameter of deformed wire ranges from D1 [0.113 in.] to D45 [0.757 in.] for English units, and MD 25 [5.64 mm] to MD290 [19.2 mm] for metric units.
