IS 2062 Gr A / B/ ASTM A 36

An MS (mild steel) plate's specification involves its Indian Standard (IS) or ASTM standard (e.g., IS 2062, ASTM A36), dimensions (thickness, width, length), manufacturing process (Hot-Rolled or Cold-Rolled), and chemical/mechanical properties. Key dimensions can range from 3mm to 150mm thick, with widths and lengths varying by supplier and standard, and required certifications like a Manufacturer's Test Certificate are essential.
