4 Content of Ordering
4.1 In accordance with this Standard, contract or order shall include the following
content.
a) Serial number of this Standard;
b) Product type (steel plate, steel strip);
c) Nameplate;
d) Dimension, specification and thickness accuracy;
e) Borderline state (trimming EC; non-trimming EM);
f) Status of delivery;
g) Weight;
h) Packaging mode;
i) Special requirements.
4.2 When borderline state and thickness accuracy is not indicated in the contract,
steels shall be delivered under common thickness and accuracy (steel strip. non-
trimmed; steel plate. trimmed).
6.5.2 Partial defects that will not affect the usage and can be removed, such as thin
layer of oxidized scale, rust, slight pocking mark and scratch, can be allowed to exist
on the surface of steel plate and steel strip. Its convex-concave degree cannot exceed
half of the tolerance of steel plate and steel strip. Furthermore, the minimum allowable
thickness of steel plate and steel strip shall be guaranteed
6.5.3 In terms of steel plate and steel strip that are delivered while being non-trimmed,
the depth in the width direction of its edge crack and other defects shall be ≤ half of
the allowable deviation of width. Furthermore, the minimum width of steel strip shall be
guaranteed.
6.5.4 The surface quality of steel plate can also comply with the stipulations in GB/T
14977 through the negotiation of the supply side and the demand side.
6.5.5 In terms of steel strip, since there is no opportunity to cut off the defects, it is
allowed to be delivered with defects. However, the length of the part with defects shall

Appendix B
(informative appendix)
Guideline for the Evaluation of Weather Corrosion Resistance of Low-alloy
Steel
B.1 Scope
This Appendix provides a method of evaluating low-alloy steel’s weather corrosion
resistance through chemical composition. In accordance with this Appendix, the
relative corrosion resistance of various nameplates can be evaluated. Under general
circumstances, when steels manifest relatively satisfying weather corrosion resistance,
the corrosion resistance index that is calculated in accordance with this Appendix shall
be 6.0 or above 6.0.
In this Method, a forecasting formula that is based on steel’s chemical composition is
adopted to calculate steel’s corrosion resistance index.
Since multiple corrosion resistance indexes are being adopted in the world, when an
index is selected, the consideration of different working environment and steel’s
chemical composition is indispensable. Based on the differences of the working
environment and steel’s chemical composition, any index might be inapplicable.
Therefore, it is necessary for the supply side and the demand side to jointly determine
which index shall be adopted and the size of such index in the forecasted working
environment.
B.2 Terms
Low-alloy steel refers to carbon steel with the total content of alloy elements > 1% but
< 5%.
NOTE. most “low-alloy weather resistant steel” contains the addictive Cr and Cu element;
it also might contain the addictive Si, Ni, P or other allow elements that can
reinforce the weather resistance properties.
B.3 Method
B.3.1 Legault and Leckie released the formula of forecasting the corrosion of low-alloy
steel that is exposed under different atmospheric environment for 15.5 years based on
the chemical composition of steels. This formula is based on a great deal of data
released by Larrabee and Coburn.
B.3.2 For the accuracy of application, the Legault-Leckie formula under industrial
environment (Kearny, N.J.) has been modified to calculate chemical composition-
