PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Bridges ask for quiet reliability: plates that sit flat, take a weld cleanly, and accept coatings without fuss. This Q235 / astm a36 steel plate family delivers exactly that. Hot-rolled plates arrive with the dark, slightly grippy mill skin that shops expect; cold-rolled sheets feel crisp and uniform when you run a glove over them. Strike an arc and the puddle wets in with a steady note; spatter stays low, and the heat-affected zone is tidy. After blasting, primer bites evenly; galvanized plates show a bright spangle and shrug off splash. For owners this becomes fewer interventions over the life of the asset. For fabricators it means faster fit-up, fewer shims, and schedules that hold.

Design clarity:A36-level yield simplifies member sizing and splice detailing—streamlined calculations and predictable inspector sign-off.
Weldability that protects throughput:Low carbon chemistry supports sound welds, lowers preheat demands, and reduces rework.
Finish tailored to environment:From shot-blast + primer for shop speed to galvanizing for salt/splash zones.
Dimensional discipline:Gauge control and flatness reduce lamination rejects, bolt-up fights, and camber surprises on long splice plates.
Traceable & testable:Heat numbers on bundles, MTC supplied; optional UT and CVN for fatigue-sensitive zones.
A brief orientation, then the specifics you can use in tenders.
Quick Note(1–2 lines)
These commodity structural grades are routinely cross-referenced for global procurement. Always align impact class and project code notes.

Checklist(When mixing grades)
Confirm impact requirements(e.g., JR vs J0 vs J2)
Align welding procedure(WPS/PQR)
Specify any UT/CVN for fracture-sensitive details
Keep documentation consistent(MTC heat-to-bundle mapping)

Context
Hot-rolled covers primary members at scale; cold-rolled serves liners or architectural steel where surface and gauge are tighter. We match tolerance classes to your spec and optimize cut maps to minimize offcuts.

Hot-rolled plate | 2.75–100 mm | 1000–5000 mm(stocked 500–2200 mm cuts) | 1–3 m(CTL up to 12,000 mm) |
Cold-rolled sheet | 0.2–3.0 mm | 500–2200 mm | As ordered(CTL) |
Tolerance Option
Thickness:per order class(HR/CR)
Flatness:plate class suitable for bridge fabrication
Edge geometry:camber/sweep controls for long splice plates
Mark-and-match:bundle/plate IDs aligned to shop drawings
Select a finish that fits environment and workflow; each option ships with packaging that protects edges and face.
Black hot-rolled:classic mill scale; ideal for in-shop blasting or painting.
Oiled:transit protection when plates head straight to the burn table.
Shot-blasted + primer(e.g., zinc-rich):even tooth; ready for immediate fit-up without re-blast.
Galvanized:spangle sheen; proven performance in splash/salt exposure.
Custom coatings:system alignment to owner specs on request.

Girders & floorbeams:predictable yield simplifies sizing;long CTL reduces field joints and erection time。
Deck plates & wearing surfaces:consistent thickness improves paving uniformity;blasted & primed plates compress coating schedules。
Bracing, diaphragms, gussets:flatness and clean edges reduce fit-up time;holes land where the model says they should。
Base plates & bearings:machinability supports precise grout pockets and alignment。
A brief field story:A coastal overpass rehab mandated overnight closures. Pre-beveled, blasted-and-primed a36 plate arrived with heat-numbered bundles matched to the cut list. Crews lifted, tacked, and sealed without re-blast. No shim hunt at bolt-up, no surprise camber—traffic reopened before dawn.

Q1: Can Q235 and ASTM A36 be mixed in one bridge package?
Yes—commonly for non-fracture-critical parts. We supply a mapping sheet and align CVN/UT where required so inspectors sign off with confidence.
Q2: Which finish is best for coastal jobs?
Shot-blasted + zinc-rich primer or full galvanizing for splash/salt zones; we match the coating system to your corrosion category and maintenance strategy.
Q3: Do you provide CVN and UT?
Yes. CVN temperature/energy per spec; UT per your level and scan plan. Results are included in the MTC/inspection dossier.
Q4: How do you ensure weldability?
Controlled chemistry, disclosure on MTC, and heat-to-bundle traceability. Weld coupons for PQR can be supplied if your WPS is being qualified.
Q5: What lead time should I plan for?
Stocked specs ship fast; CTL and processing depend on the cut map and coating. We quote a firm dispatch date with your PO.
