This standard is drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T11-2009.

This standard replaces GB/T706-2008 "Hot Rolled Steel Sections". The main technical changes of

this standard compared to GB/T706-2008 are as follows:

--Removed the relevant content of hot-rolled L-shaped steel (see Table 3, Table 5, Table A.5 in

the 2008 version);

--Added ordering content (see Chapter 3);

--Adjusted some allowable deviations in dimensions and appearance (see Table 1 and Table 2 of

the 2008 version);

-Adjust the allowable deviation requirements for weight (see 4.4, section 3.4 of the 2008 version);

--Added specification representation method (see 4.5);

--The cross-sectional area, theoretical weight, and cross-sectional characteristic parameters were

adjusted (see Table A.1, Table A.2, Table A.3, and Table A.4).

This standard is proposed by the China Iron and Steel Industry Association.

This standard is under the jurisdiction of the National Technical Committee for Steel

Standardization (SCA/TC183).

 4.2.2 The passivation of the outer edge of the leg end of
I-beam, the passivation of the outer edge of the leg end of
channel steel, and the passivation of the shoulder should not

4.3 Length and allowable deviation

The delivery length of the section steel should be specified in the contract, and the allowable
deviation in length should comply with the provisions of Table 3.

Unit in millimeters

4.4 Weight and allowable deviation

4.4 Weight and allowable deviation
4.4.1 The section steel should be delivered according to the theoretical weight, which is
calculated based on a density of 7.85g/cm. After negotiation between the supply and demand
parties and specified in the contract, delivery can also be made according to the actual weight.
4.4.2 The allowable deviation of section steel weight should not exceed ± 5%. Calculate the
weight deviation (%) according to equation (1). The allowable weight deviation applies to a batch
of the same size with a mass exceeding 1 ton. It also applies when the mass of a batch of the same
size is not greater than 1 ton but the number of pieces is greater than 10 pieces.
Weight deviation= Actual weight - theoretical weight
Theoretical weight X100%................... (1)

4.4.3 The formula for calculating the cross-sectional area of section steel is shown in Table 4.

Table 4 Calculation method of cross-sectional area

4.5 Specification representation method

I-beam: "I" and height value x leg width value x waist thickness value;
For example, 450x150x11.5 (abbreviated as I45a).
Channel steel: "[" and height value x leg width value x waist thickness value;
For example, [20x75x9 (abbreviated as [20b).
Equal angle steel: "<" corresponds to the value of edge width x edge width x edge thickness;
For example:/200x200x24 (abbreviated as/200x24).
Unequal edge angle steel: "<" corresponds to the value of long edge width x short edge width
x edge thickness;
 For example:/160x100x16.
