ASTM A871 Weathering Steel
ASTM A871 is a standard specification for high-strength, low-alloy (HSLA) structural steel plates designed to provide enhanced atmospheric corrosion resistance compared to carbon steels. This weathering steel forms a protective oxide layer (patina) when exposed to the elements, reducing the need for painting or coatings in many applications. It is commonly used in bridges, buildings, transmission towers, and other outdoor structures.
